does the slings keep his legs stronger because he kicks and holds his hands, I guess this prevents pressure sores.
May I ask how do you take Nate out, does he have a van and a wheelchair lift and the little yellow school bus for special needs children? Could you make a video on Nate's van and lift and his little school bus those would be nice to see.
The slings are great physical therapy. He can move when you take the gravity away. He also moves well in the water. We prevent pressure sores by turning him every 2 hours. We have a handicap van with a ramp. He has a wheelchair and ceiling lift in his room. He doesn't take a bus, only goes to school for about 2 months a year b/c of germs/illnesses. The nurse and I take him and stay with him at school. Stays about an hour mostly for socialization. The teacher comes to the house all year long.
That is nice Nate has a Home Schooling That Is Much Safer For Him Not To Catch What Is Going Around.
That is nice Nate gets to visit the school to see other children in his grade for his socialization.
That is wonderful you made the home made slings because they do provent pressure sores and the every 2 hours turning. That is a nice hospital bed. Is it a Hill Rom or another kind? You truly are wonderful parents to Nate he has all the best equipment and the best care.
These clips are great and thank you for sharing. All special needs children should have access to the equipment necessary to keep them home and safe with their families. The ceiling lifts are especially important but for the most part not affordable for many families.
He has a genetic neuromuscular disorder called Spinal Muscular Atrophy. It affects all his voluntary muscles, including swallowing and breathing. It does not affect his mind or cognitive skills.
Oh my gosh God bless You!

Could you do a video, where you give us a little tour of his equipment?
as you probably read in my biography, I love medical equipment, because I have had a lot of it used on me. Please? THANKS!
