Megan and Kurt Kegler had a simple wish.
The couple's 22-month-old daughter, Madison, was diagnosed with a brain tumor in January. She had surgery, and now has ongoing chemo, physical and occupational therapy.
Because they could no longer afford their second car, they have to depend on their 10-year-old Mercury Villager to get their daughter to the hospital and doctor visits. But their two-hour round trip journey to Detroit from their Washington Township home was taking a toll on their car's wheels.
Megan Kegler wished her family had a new set of tires for the car, their lifeline, so she posted her story on Wish Upon A Hero, a Web site where everyone can help anyone. Within a day, Discount Tire in Chesterfield Township told the family to come in, and they put $470 worth of tires on to their vehicle.
"It's the best Web site in the entire world," said Megan Kegler, 27. "There are so many special people out there."
