September Love Drop - Melanie

This month's Love Drop recipient is Melanie, a mother of four who was struck by a car driven by a distracted driver while walking near her home outside of Boston. She luckily survived but is currently wheelchair-bound and cannot stand or put weight on her legs. The goal of this month's Love Drop is to make her home more easily accessible during her 10 month to 1 year recovery and rehab. This includes a new stove with front controls so she can cook from her wheelchair, and a front-loading washer and dryer.

Check out this video featuring Melanie and her family.



The actions of her teenage son, who was on the walk with her, played a critical role in saving Melanie's life.
