“I had hit a critical point in regards to David’s car seat. I was barely able to heft my 7-year old up and over the side of a traditional car seat, which he had just about outgrown, and he was increasingly frantic at being hoisted in such precarious fashion.

The adaptive medical car seat David needed cost nearly $5,000, and insurance completely refused to cover what seems like a medically essential piece of equipment.

It might seem like a minor convenience, having a seat that swivels out to the door of a vehicle, but it is a life changer. Without the generosity of Emmy Lights the Way, I have no idea how I would have funded the adaptive car seat my son desperately needed.”
