Invention helps children with disabilities to walk normally

A mother has invented a special type of stand that helps boys with cerebral palsy to walk normally, instead of having to stick around all day with a wheelchair.

The frame is designed with a belt to help children stand upright by attaching it to the parents themselves. In addition, special sandals allow parents and children to step at the same time, helping their hands to relax. In this way, Debby Elnatan, a music therapist, can easily support her son Rotem.

'When my son was 2 years old, the doctor announced that he had no feeling at his feet. It is extremely painful and desperate that a mother must hear. We started practicing for our boys every day, but that was not easy , 'said Elnatan. Therefore, she has been searching for a method and devising this idea.

The idea of ​​Debby Elnatan was researched and put into production by a Northern Ireland company to be widely sold, opening hope to change the lives of countless children with disabilities.

According to the researchers, this product can help children with developmental disabilities improve both physically and emotionally.'Simple happiness when kicking a ball for the first time or taking part in playing with siblings will bring about a significant improvement in the child's emotion , ' said an analyst.
