All the six year old cancer patient wanted was a playground in her yard, but the Homeowners Association denied it because, well, there is a certain look they must maintain.
A Missouri girl battling cancer was thrilled to learn a charity group wanted to make her own wish come true. She wanted her very own playhouse in her yard, but the homeowners’ association said it’s against the rules.
Six-year-old Ella is battling a deadly form of cancer, so when Make a Wish contacted her family offering to grant the little girl a wish, she asked for a playhouse. Organizers found someone thrilled to design and build the structure, even matching the shingles used on the homes in the neighborhood, but the homeowners’ association said no.
Stacy Bayers, Stone Gate Homeowner’s Association board president, told KCTV, “The proposed plan they’ve given us is a violation of our covenants.”
Bayers refused to discuss the topic further, saying the board wants to talk over the decision some more.
Neighbors like Brett Greble support making an exception in Ella’s case. “I want to look out the window and see Ella happy.”
