Hello everyone. I have a favor to ask of the car seat universe.
I have a good friend who has ovarian cancer, among other things, and is unable to work. She's been denied SSI numerous times and they're barely getting by. People have been helping out with food and clothes, but she really needs a carseat for her 3 year old. They've been saving to get it, but...
The child is under forty pounds, but tall. She's not a good booster rider (they tried that) and they just don't have the money for a bigger seat right now.
I'm prepared to chip in to buy it, but I have a sick child of my own and huge medical bills, I can't foot the whole thing. I know a few other people who are willing to contribute a bit too. If this were for a smaller kid it wouldn't be an issue.
I was wondering if anyone out there had an older HWH seat they would be willing to part with cheap, or if anyone would like to chip in a few bucks to help me buy her one? I was thinking of getting her either a Radian or Apex, but I think an Apex will be too big in their vehicle. There is also the possibility of an EZ on harness with booster, depending on the price of everything.
If anyone has any other suggestions, PLEASE let me know!
