Meet Chip!

Chip is an amazing 17-year-old teenage boy who was diagnosed with an Anaplastic Metastatic Medulloblastoma at the age of 13. The brain tumor and brain surgeries resulted in losses of many of his abilities including walking, some of his eyesight, and swallowing. Chip is a determined young man who is working hard to relearn how to eat and to use his muscles.

Chip used to play baseball but now can only hear the games. His favorite teams are the Atlanta Braves and Georgia Bulldogs. Chip loves outdoor activities, too.  Hunting and fishing are his absolute favorites!  He also enjoys watching any show that features hunting or fishing and he is a fan of country music. Chip has lost and endured much, but he has gained the valor to continue with a smile.

Chip needs an adaptive recumbent tricycle. The mobility equipment will help to recuperate Chip’s strength in his muscles and is a great exercise for his legs. Will you please help Chip regain his mobility and independence? Please visit Chip’s Nation to learn more about Chip and his amazing journey!
