Turner's Superhero Wheel, Walk Run in Person Glenwood Springs
Hi, We are Jenni, Matt and Turner Fautsko. Turner is our world, our light and our only child. Turner lives with a rare disease KAND, KIF1A associated Neurological Disorder. Turner's fundraiser is to send our mini van off to be converted to a wheelchair van. The cost is $50,000! The van will be sent to Arizona to Vantage Mobility International where it will converted. Turner is the happiest 13 year old you will ever meet, despite all he has gone through and all his challenges he is so incredibly happy. Turner has had 9 surgeries including spinal fusion in 2020. He is also the toughest kid you’ll ever meet. Turner is a child of God and Luke Bryan’s #1 fan. T loves music, Cheetos and root beer, he uses a wheelchair, does not talk or walk or stand independently. He has 4 therapies a week to help do all he can do, visits Children’s hospital in Denver at least every three months and depends on us for all his care. Turner is in 7th grade at Glenwood Springs Middle School. He loves his family, friends, teachers and the Colorado outdoors. We are so blessed that Turner picked us to be his parents. Matt and I could not love him more. His van needs to last us a very long time, is vital to get him to his Dr. appointments, therapies and in our community. This will be life changing for our family and give us so much for freedom. Turner is 65 lbs. now and transferring in and out of his seat in the van is getting very difficult especially with all my surgeries from breast cancer. We are so very thankful for all your love and support for Turner and our family, Love, Jenni, Matt & Turner
