Most people use Pokémon cards to collect.
We’re using them to survive.
Every trade helps Vincent—my son with Duchenne—get closer to the care he needs.
We started with a stack of our own.
This is our trade-up mission. Please share it.

No, the world does not revolve around you.
However, you percive your world, not the rest of it.
Your world, does revolve around you.

Nothing wastes a life faster than believing; you must first become worthy of living it.

We’re using the Pokémon hobby to fund an accessible home for my son Vincent (14), who lives with terminal Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Trading cards. Building community. Fighting for dignity, access, and time.
Cardboard can do more than collect dust — it can change lives.

From cardboard to concrete.
From binder pages to doorways that fit.
This is Vincent’s Pokémon Trade-Up Journey.
We trade Pokémon cards forward—step by step—turning their growing value into real accessibility for a kid living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

When you're born, you look like your parents.
When you die, you look like your decisions.

Everything is too much, and not enough at the same time.
Life is not worth the suffering we must endure for it.

People say, "time changes everything"
But if you do nothing, nothing will happen.
Doing things changes things.
Don't be complacent.

We had the chance to hand out Mega Evolution packs on behalf of @getcollectrapp for their #CardsForKids initiative at Cardchella this weekend 💫
We'll have more at Hobbycon (Oct 12) & Mewtopia (Oct 18)!
Love seeing the smiles from kids — and parents too.
Huge thanks to Collectr for helping us give back! 💛

Hi, I’m Steve — my son Vincent (14) has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a rare muscle-wasting disease.
Together we’re trading Pokémon cards up into bigger and bigger items to fund his accessibility needs.
Follow, like, and share to be part of #TradeUpForVincent ♿❤️🃏

Today, I woke up and I hate myself.
Death doesn't answer when I cry for help.
No high could save me from the depths of Hell.
I'll drown my mind until I'm someone else.

Hey @yungblud
I’ve heard you talk about how insane ticket prices are… but this is what I’d have to pay to see you in Toronto...
Can't afford it, but respect what you do. 🔥

Just watched my hero's funeral procession.
Rest in love and power, Prince.

I shouldn't have to build the very system that should’ve been there to catch us.
