Meet 6-year-old Cannon. He was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at birth and spent the first 11 months of his life in the NICU. He has muscle weakness that affects his balance and endurance, yet he greets every day with joy and determination.
Cannon has many interests. He enjoys watching YouTube videos of ceiling fans, finding the gentle movement soothing. He loves watching football with his family and cheering on the Miami Dolphins—throwing his hands in the air every time they score a touchdown. Cannon is a peaceful boy who treasures his visits to the Aquarium to watch the dolphins glide through the water. Above all, he loves going for walks. Cannon inspires everyone around him and truly makes the world a brighter place.
Cannon needs an adaptive therapy tricycle to help improve his balance, strength, and independence while giving him a safe and enjoyable way to join his family on bike rides. This special trike will support his physical development and keep him engaged socially with the people he loves.
Thanks to The St. Pete Queen of Hearts and Santa, Cannon received a special tricycle that will allow him to enjoy family bike rides, build confidence, and experience the joy of independence alongside his loved ones.
