A Philadelphia mother is devastated after the reported theft of her 10-year-old son's wheelchair just two days after Thanksgiving.

Heather Pico, mother of Dominic, told Fox Philadelphia that someone took the chair from her '94 Ford Aerostar van when it was parked outside her house Saturday.

The forth grader suffers from a rare genetic disorder and his wheelchair is his primary means for getting around. Without it, leaving the house is more or less impossible, Pico told the station.

Pico, a single mother, told Fox Philly that she has only one message for the thief:

"Please, just return it. Like, drop it off on the corner, drop it off at a firehouse, I don't care where you drop it off, just drop it off somewhere where they can return it to me, for my son."
