Electric scooter for Dorothy to explore her neighborhood

Posted Oct 3, 2024
When Dorothy was just a child, she endured unimaginable suffering at the hands of her birth father. The physical abuse and severe neglect left her underweight and in desperate need of medical attention. After being rescued from that horrific situation, she faced a new set of challenges. Her body struggled to recover, and she had to see a specialist to address the effects of malnutrition on her bone density and growth. Now, Dorothy is still dealing with the aftermath of her traumatic past. She's carrying excess weight that she gained as a result of her body's response to years of deprivation. It's heartbreaking to think about how her early experiences continue to impact her life. Despite everything, Dorothy is determined to reclaim her health and well-being. She's hoping that an electric scooter will provide her with the means to explore her neighborhood and engage in physical fitness activities. It's inspiring to see her resilience, but it's also a stark reminder of the lasting scars left by childhood trauma. With this scooter, Dorothy hopes that she can explore her surroundings and feel like a normal kid.
