I am Nicholas and am a father to two amazing young boys. My oldest Hayden will be turning 3 on the 27th of September and the little one Matthew will be 1 on the 28th of September. 

My son Hayden was diagnosed with Childhood disintegrative disorder - This disorder typically affects toddlers and preschoolers. They lose language and social skills and typically have moderate or low functioning levels. He was diagnosed with this just before his 2nd birthday. The doctors say that he probably will not speak until he is 7 or 8 years old and probably will never be able to care for himself when he is older. We have been taking him to a motor skills specialist that has been trying to help him speak. He also goes to another specialist that helps him with learning the basics like colors and shapes. It's is going okay, not the best but in the end me and my wife think the money will be worth it. 

With that being said our finances has taken a toll. Our credit cards our maxed out and even got a second mortgage to help pay for his medical needs. So we wanted to be able to give our kids a good birthday, especially being it will be Matthew's first birthday. This will be both of theirs first visit to Disneyland and it would mean the world to us and them if you could donate to make it happen. Even if it's $1 that will be so helpful to us. 

Travel Dates: 9/26 - 9/30

The money will go towards the following:
Hotel Room: $700
Disneyland Tickets: $600
Food/Snacks: $800
Gas: $300
MISC: $500

*MISC will be used in case of emergency or if our estimated costs are too low. 


Remember this isn't for me or my wife we have been to Disneyland many times, and we want our boys to get to experience the wonderful and joyful experience at Disneyland and we are asking for your help. We will send EVERYONE that donates money a link to a website that I will create that has photos of the boys at Disneyland enjoying what you made possible. 

Thank You
