Savannah and her mother Lacey love Halloween. Savannah has some complex medical conditions and uses a wheelchair, so Lacey spends a lot of time coming up with the right costume to celebrate spooky season each year. But this year, Magic Wheelchair and Waltham-based Solidworks are helping them create something extra special.
