Jewel is a 10 year old girl with cerebral palsy who lives in Maui with her Mom, Dad and two older sisters. Cerebral palsy does not define her, but it is a big part of her life-our life too. This blog is to share how i (Ivana, her mom) see her growing up and keep her healthy as she is on no medication. She has physical, speech and ocupational therapy. It is also to provide support to other families of kids with Cerebral Palsy.

Prime Engineering - KidWalk
This is the gait trainer we are looking at getting for Jeweliana, it is from Prime Engineering, and is called a Kidwalk.
The reason I like it is because of the lateral weight shift during ambulation. Which basically means, it allows the child to have motion while in the gait trainer, and doesn't force them to stay still while learning to walk. 4/5/11
