  7. My daughter has CP and the surgeries and drugs didn't work for her so I think this might. Thanks for your idea. I hope you get chosen.

  8. Were there therapists involved in it's design? It looks like it works better than a typical wheelchair.

    Reply, Yes you can sit. In fact my daughter is sitting for the most part but she is able to push her feet into the soft memory foam mat and straighten out her spine all on her own whenever she likes. It's like a stander with a seat and the freedom of a gait trainer on a power base all in one. Thanks for your interest. Heidi

  23. Me and my brother tried it and it was really fun. First we wanted to go slow then we wanted to go faster and go over bumps. It's fun for lots of peaople but it's really fun for people with special needs because they can live there and you could sleep in it because you won't fall over. I will be 7 years old in Oct. 26.

  24. From my experience after recomending many standers for children, 1st impression from them are "hay I'm on top of the world' !! what a great idea for Development.

    I do recomend sit to stand power wheelchairs but this is totally differant and can fly ! more fun n therapy on the move !!
