The Fowler family of Dallas Center got a warm welcome home Saturday afternoon.
The family came home to a much needed home renovation. Tom Fowler,16, suffers from a rare type of cerebral palsy. The disorder has taken away his ability to walk or car for himself. Four-years ago, Tom's mom died unexpectedly, leaving Tom's dad, Mark, to care for Tom by himself in their farmhouse. The home, old, but maintain wasn't handicap accessible. The home had no ramps and the only shower was on the second floor, making it hard for Tom's father to care for him.
Over the last three-and-a-half days volunteers spent their time remodeling Tom's bedroom, adding a second shower and installing a wheelchair ramp. The home renovation was made possibly by "Project Dream Space" and K&V Homes.
