Up N' Go


My little guy has a very rare gene duplication called MecP2 Gene Duplication Syndrome which causing him to have low muscle tone. As a result learning to walk has been a difficult thing for him. Last week we received Jacob's Up N' Go, a walker which doesn't allow the user to sit in it, but rather through a harness and mechanical genius carries part of their body weight so that they may learn to walk or rehabilitate whatever the case maybe. If you know anyone who is rehabilitating from an accident or a child who is unable to walk unassisted, please let them know about the Up N' Go it is amazing! Jacob has been cruising around the house all week. Yeah!
