Becks Helping Hands

➡️ I’ve gone back and forth on whether to share this here… but in my heart, I know I should.
An accessible van wouldn’t just change things for Beck, it would open more doors for our nonprofit and strengthen our mission. We are beyond thankful for the Jett Foundation helping us along the way 🙏🏼

Every family deserves access. Every child deserves independence.
For medically complex families like ours, mobility isn’t a luxury. It’s the foundation of safety, dignity, and simply being able to live life without barriers.

Most people never see what mornings look like for Beck- the long walks in the cold (his chair stays locked up in a closet at school currently), the exhaustion before his day even begins, and the constant questions we have to ask ourselves:
“Is this safe?”
“Will this drain too much energy?”
With Duchenne, EVERY step matters. EVERY ounce of energy matters.

An accessible van would change everything.
It would mean safer transfers (last week in the rain- while getting out, he literally slid out of my car and landed on the concrete) my heart stopped as I got to him because I feared that would be the moment he would lose his ability to walk) that fear will forever be there until he’s safe. 
It would mean less fatigue.
It would mean arriving at school, appointments, and games without being completely worn down.
It would mean more independence-something every teen wants and deserves.

It would also give him the ability to drive these places on his own. This is something that every teenager dreams of and Beck has the approval to do so-we just need a van💔

As a nonprofit dedicated to accessibility and medically complex families, we believe mobility is not optional. It’s essential. And right now, this is the accessibility need our own family is facing 🥹

If you feel led to donate, share, or simply cheer us on- thank you!! 🫶🏼
Every dollar, every share, every bit of encouragement brings us one step closer to giving Beck the independence and energy he deserves.

❤️Accessible vehicles change lives.
❤️Community makes it possible.

This past week, our family experienced something we never want another family to face 💔

Beck became critically ill after contracting the flu and developed sepsis, a life threatening complication that can escalate quickly, especially in immunocompromised individuals and those with complex medical needs.

What started as symptoms many families see during flu season turned into a medical emergency FAST. Beck’s blood pressure dropped significantly, and with his underlying conditions, doctors made it clear it was not safe for him to be discharged. His BP was 49/30 with a HR of 170 when we arrived by ambulance.

Had we waited even one more day, the outcome could have been very different. I was told this by his nurse as he hugged me in the hallway.

Beck spent Christmas in the hospital under close monitoring in the PICU. Today, we are thankful to share that he is home but still under close medical supervision, with numerous follow-up appointments scheduled this week to ensure continued stability and healing. He’s also loaded with numerous medications.

We are also SO incredibly grateful that his port did not become infected. This is something we know could have made this situation even more dangerous.

We are sharing this not to create fear, but to create awareness.

Please take the flu seriously.
Please protect those who are medically fragile.
Please trust your instincts if something feels off.
And please seek care early — even if you worry you’re overreacting!

Beck’s Helping Hands exists because families like ours live this reality every day. For medically fragile children and individuals, equipment, advocacy, and support are not extras — they are lifelines.

We are deeply grateful for the medical teams who acted quickly, and for the community that continues to surround Beck and our family with love, prayers, and support.

If this message helps even one family act sooner, it matters.

Stay safe. 💛

This time of year reminds us how powerful it is when one family lifts another 🫶🏼

A local Duchenne family has reached out with a beautiful gift they’d like to pass forward — a pediatric lightweight wheelchair for a young child who needs more stability, comfort, and independence.
Remember to conserve that energy 😊

Chair Details:
• Lightweight pediatric manual wheelchair
• Jay Zip pediatric backrest for posture & support
• Anti-tippers for safety
• Footplate with strap
• Extra seat cover + books included
• Missing: push handles, seatbelt, and brake locks
(And Beck’s Helping Hands will GLADY cover the cost of replacing anything that’s missing so the chair is complete, safe, and ready for the child who needs it.)

Depending on the child’s size and age, adjustments may be needed, and we can help guide that process.
We will connect the receiving family directly with the donors.

Duchenne families will receive priority, but we are open to blessing any child who truly needs this piece of independence.

If you know a family carrying heavy days who could use this, please message us privately.
A little equipment can change a whole world. 💛✨

The chair is located in North Georgia- The family is also willing to meet within a reasonable distance 💚

Today isn’t just about giving.
It’s about seeing the families who feel invisible in their hardest moments.
It’s about the moms who lift more than their bodies were ever meant to lift.
It’s about the individuals who smile through pain no one talks about.
It’s about the quiet grief that sits beside the fierce love we carry every single day.

Duchenne changes everything.
It rearranges your world, your routine, your dreams, and your strength.
It takes pieces of childhood that should have been simple — running outside, jumping on the bed, racing to the car. This replaces them with machines, appointments, and questions you’re never ready to answer.

But Duchenne will never take the love.
And it will never take the community we are building together.

At Beck’s Helping Hands, we’ve watched families break down from exhaustion…
and then stand back up because someone showed up with a ramp, a chair, a piece of equipment, or a moment of hope 🫶🏼

We’ve watched warriors fight with everything they have left…
and we’ve honored the loved ones we’ve sadly had to let go from this brutal disease 💔

We’ve seen parents hold fear in one hand and faith in the other…
all while fighting for their child’s dignity, safety, and independence.

This Giving Tuesday, your gift becomes more than a donation:
💚 It becomes a breath of relief for a family who hasn’t had one in a long time.
💚 It becomes access, mobility, and safety for a child who deserves the world.
💚It becomes love showing up in the cracks of someone’s hardest season.

We give because families like ours don’t get to take breaks.
We give because these warriors deserve more than the battles they face.
We give because even on the days when Duchenne feels unbearable, community makes it survivable.

This Giving Tuesday, thank you for seeing us.
Thank you for seeing Beck.
Thank you for seeing the warriors who fight every single day.
And thank you for loving the ones we carry in our hearts forever.

We are beyond thankful for every donation made- big or small or an even a simple share. 

💚For Beck and for every individual with Duchenne — today, we give with everything we have. 💚

Beck has also created his own fundraiser! I will post his in the comments 🙏🏼😊

This Thanksgiving, we honor every part of the Duchenne journey.

The caregiving, the courage, the appointments, the joy, the fear, and the love woven through it all 🫶🏼

To the families missing someone today:
your grief belongs here, even on the holidays.
We remember your warriors with you. ALWAYS 🙏🏼

To those fighting the daily fight, we stand with you. ALWAYS 💚

Take the photos. Collect the moments.
Be gentle with your heart today. It’s okay to take a break as needed.

Embrace the memories and hold your people close.

From our family to yours,
Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🤎

UPDATE: We have found the PERFECT home for this chair 🎉 We can’t wait to get it delivered and share pictures with with you all!

It’s the weekend and almost time for the holidays 💚

We received this BRAND NEW Quantum Edge 3 power chair a few months ago as a donation. It’s fully loaded with iLevel, tilt, elevate, and every feature a Duchenne warrior deserves. It even includes the brand-new charger still in the box.

This untouched chair was donated with SO much love, and it brings tears to my eyes thinking about the individual who will feel its impact — and the amazing family who unselfishly gifted it to us 🖤

Duchenne families will have priority on this chair. We can meet locally or arrange pickup within a reasonable distance. We are located in North Georgia. Depending on the age/size of the individual- you may need to work with a PT to have it adjusted to fit comfortably.

If a Duchenne family isn’t in immediate need, we will pass this blessing on to another deserving family whose days are heavy and could use a miracle like this. Because the gifts that arrive in the cracks of our hardest seasons are the ones that carry us 🫶🏼

This chair is more than mobility. It’s relief, hope, and a piece of normalcy in a world that never stops shifting.

Power chairs are too expensive… HOPE shouldn’t be. May this be a blessing to someone this holiday season.

ANNUAL DIG FOR DUCHENNE EVENT 💚

Habersham Central Volleyball and Apalachee Volleyball played with purpose and heart raising $1600 for Beck’s Helping Hands! 🏐💚
They faced Apalachee, where Beck proudly manages the volleyball team.
The 45-30 on the check represents two friends- Beck ( #45) and AJ ( #30) who shared a love for power soccer and an unbreakable bond (this was truly a special touch 🖤)

This game was more than a match, it was a reminder of friendship, community, and hope. 💚
Forever thankful for all the helpers in our community!

PLEASE take a moment and watch this film about Connor who lives with Duchenne. THIS is reality. This is why it’s so important to be educated on how to handle Duchenne and those who suffer from the disease daily.
A simple fall or break can lead to severe emergencies.

Connor sums it up so real and reminds me so much of Beck and his “wants” along with so many others.

We need a cure 💔

Definitely felt this was worth a share and that others can also relate. Just please know that you’re never alone.

“Support” isn’t just a word. It’s staying present when life looks different than expected. Every family deserves a circle that shows up through the hard days, not just the easy ones.

In case you didn’t already know. We also have a company we started last year to help families with TRUE accessibility 🙌🏼

Every ramp, grab bar, and entryway we build is more than construction—it’s a step toward inclusion.

Accessibility done right ✅ Accessibility Design LLC uses their expert knowledge of ADA guidelines to ensure every project meets the highest standards of safety and inclusion. ♿

We are proud to offer more knowledge within our community so that everything is done right the FIRST time. Feel free to follow our other page and reach out if you have a specific need.

This is too meaningful not to share. Over the weekend we shared a manual chair for someone in need. Hoping to bless another family.

Someone in our local community reached out and we were able to help. Moments like this are why we do what we do. Its beautiful when we can all come together 🫶🏼

At Becks Helping Hands, every chair, every ramp, every bit of support brings someone closer to their family, their independence, and their joy.

Thank you to everyone who donates, shares, and supports our mission. You make stories like this possible. 💚
