She watches SpongeBob SquarePants, too. The young girl does her best to be active, and she especially likes swimming. Furthermore, Alysha attends 6th grade and she has fun being around little kids in her school. Alysha is a great role model for children and a source of inspiration for adults!

Alysha loves her new therapy trike! Mom says they have been out every day for hours at a time. Alysha smiles and laughs as the warm breeze brushes against her soft checks while the feeling of freedom and independence fill her body.

 

This special therpy trike provides extra physical therapy at home to help build muscles and improve stamina and balance but most importantly it provides peer interaction allowing Alysha to ride a bike just like all her friends!
