Shriners Bike

Travis had another great PT session at Shriners today.  The physical therapist he sees there had T try a bike during the previous PT session.  Travis enjoyed the views from the bike then and figured out how to pedal by himself, especially at the end of therapy.  Today he had Travis try the bike again and T did amazing.  He went all around Shriners on the bike, with and without help.  The bare floors are the easiest, Travis did figure out how to maneuver on the carpet.  I was jumping for joy watching him go and the therapist was too.  The physical therapist started the paperwork for T to get a bike, this process could take several months.

T's bike will be a little different as he doesn't need as much back support like is on this bike.  I think he will LOVE the bike and independence it offers.  Go T!
