Counting on all Booster readers: Beckett Burnstad, a two-year-old from the Round Hill area, really needs your immediate help. Sometime very early in life, Beckett somehow contracted Lyme’s Disease plus coxsackievirus which can cause a wide range of serious ailments, not the least of which is paralysis. After a variety of inaccurate diagnoses, Beckett’s parents, Josh and Rebekah, who farm in the district, aggressively sought medical assistance in Germany where Beckett’s problems were ultimately correctly identified. The process to attempt to rid Beckett of Lyme in his nervous system is both lengthy and expensive. Many trips to see a specialist in the Vancouver area will be involved. Meanwhile, Beckett’s physiological and mental developmental clock is ticking. Unable to walk yet, his spine is becoming dangerously curved. A pricey, motorized support wheelchair is the best next step to give him mobility, plus it will give his spinal column the support it desperately requires. There are two ways you, as a neighbour or concerned individual, can help young Beckett: a Bottle Drive will take place this weekend. Bring your bottles to the west parking lot of Round Hill School on Friday from 6 to 8 p.m. or Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon. They can also be taken directly to Universal Bottle Depot, Camrose, anytime, where an account has been created in Beckett's name. A GoFundMe has also been started. Let’s help the Burnstads raise the $25,000 they need to help this youngster greatly improve his present situation.
