My nephew was injured in a swimming accident last month. He is paralized from the waist down and wrists down. I am trying to find information and financial help so he can be brought home from the hospital. The home will need some renovations to be accessable to him. His wheelchair will not fit down the hall etc. Any help will be greatly appreciated. We just don't know where to look. Thanks.

momo right if he is qualified for disability I would go there first- my son is on disability then find a social worker at a local hospital so they can find organizations that can help to renovate the house or find another place to live or a home health Aide, find local parent organizations with disablied child to se if they have meetings
