He currently is unable to ride his bike because he's outgrown the one he had and due to our financial hardship we can not buy him one. I was hoping you could help him ride again or point me in the direction of someone who can help...he doesn't have many friends outside of school so this is really a way for him to enjoy himself.<br /> Thank you for your time<br /> Marie RiveraAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08862446265947408233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-78403285469788479032014-10-01T10:38:14.955-04:002014-10-01T10:38:14.955-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.suggs28https://www.blogger.com/profile/00218817307049916563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-84571326882126510512013-09-30T13:49:59.915-04:002013-09-30T13:49:59.915-04:00I have an 8 year old son with cereal palsy but has...I have an 8 year old son with cereal palsy but has never ride on a bike and we can't afford a special bike.

Shudder) I live in St. Louis Missouri and have been looking for the past 10 yrs for a program that would provide me with an Adaptive Tricycle. Creative Mobility has trikes but on SSDI there is no way I can afford a $4,000 bike. <br /><br />There is so often the mistaken impression that C.P. is somehow a pediatric condition. Kids with C.P. grow up to be adults with C.P. who have some of the same continuing needs.<br /><br />Please help, is there ANYTHING out there that would help an adult with no extended family get a bike? I need exercise as much as anyone else.<br /><br />~ C.J.CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065078361139719088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401303964563152307.post-76643599291281973952013-04-25T16:07:25.640-04:002013-04-25T16:07:25.640-04:00Ellen this is awesome.
