Shane was diagnosed with leukemia at age eight, and a complication during treatment led to a significant brain injury. Through every challenge, he has stayed strong and surrounded by his tight-knit siblings, known proudly as the “Lang Gang.” Some of their happiest memories together are from their days enjoying the sun and sand on the beach.
Thanks to his new Extreme Motus All-Terrain Chair, Shane will soon have a beach-capable wheelchair that brings those moments back. He can once again feel the ocean breeze, hear the waves, and cheer on his siblings at their games.
His mom shares:
“Those sounds, those laughs… they would create more joy for him than anything else I can imagine. Here’s a picture of when we made it to Robert Moses beach for the first time! It was so great to get Shane back to our old happy place. This chair is amazing and we really appreciate your generosity in making this happen.”
