Peddlin' 4 Kevin

I’m Peddlin’ For Kevin! Who’s Kevin? Kevin Barton, was diagnosed shortly after birth with a form of Muscular Dystrophy called, Spinal Muscular Atrophy. It is a genetic disease that affects the motor nerve cells in the spinal cord and causes progressive weakness of the muscles. Medically, Kevin’s life expectancy was less than a few years.

Why am I Peddlin’ For Kevin? Recently, Tennessee State Medicaid along with its MCO, Amerigroup, has drastically reduced the number of hours they will provide in Kevin’s home health care. Without being able to supplement this care with additional care, he will not be able to continue living independently in his own home like he has been doing for the last 22 years.

Kevin says that his fight is to be able to continue living independently on his terms in his home. He expresses that the extraordinary quality of life he has been able to live thus far is a direct correlation to the level of care (one-on-one 24/7) he has been able to receive. That has equaled his freedom and what he would like to believe is his American right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Kevin is a friend, co-writer and an inspiration to me and a bunch of other wonderful people in and around Nashville. I’m peddlin’ for Kevin cause he deserves to keep this normal regular guy lifestyle. Please join me in helping Kevin by sponsoring my ride! You can donate a one time donation or by the mile.
