Winter walk
3 August 2024Just thought I’d post a video of Neihana getting out in the sun today at the Rotorua Lakefront! He’s loving his walker, thanks to everyone again ❤️

Here’s a first look at Neihana walking at home. Thanks to everyone! I will post another video once we get out walking in town too. Xxx
Finally, after months of waiting and coordination, the Trexo robotic legs arrived on our doorstep today! We have the training and setup scheduled on January 5th so I will be sure to share a video of him walking for the first time. Thanks to all who made it possible! Xxx
We had our first fitting for the walking frame today. We were all pleasantly surprised how well he managed to stand in the frame! It went more smoothly than we expected. Now we just wait to add the robot legs instead of multiple people moving his legs 😂
Things are underway for getting the walker! We have a zoom call this weekend to start talking logistics and next week is our first fitting for the frame. Once the money is paid out next month, they can start production on the robotics in Canada. Anticipate it will take a few months to sort. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to make this happen! Also, I’m still working on my thank yous for the donations, 380 to go…..
We can’t believe we have already reached our goal! We are OVERWHELMED with the generosity you have shown. Sorry I haven’t thanked everyone personally, I am working through the messages. We made a little video to celebrate. THANK YOU ALL for making this dream come true !!!
