Halloween is always a busy time in Nickie Bolufé's home. Her 12-year-old son Liam is disabled, and Bolufé creates incredible handmade costumes that adapt to his wheelchair. 'It's a lot of labor and love,' Bolufé, who lives in Florida, tells TODAY.com. Liam has a rare, genetic disorder called MCT8 deficiency , which causes severe developmental delays. Liam is non-verbal and he's fed by tube, so he can't enjoy Halloween candy.
Jeremy is content with that — this year, he is dressing as Nirvana's Kurt Cobain, a costume that doesn't require a wheelchair addition. Also, says Miller, 'He has a group of friends that he wants to hang out with and a big costume would make that difficult.' Miller is advising a fellow dad in Georgia with an Ecto-1 wheelchair costume for his son, who will be a Ghostbuster for Halloween.
