On World Cerebral Palsy Day on 6 October, we want to introduce Felix and his family. Despite his limitations, the boy is fully engaged in life. With the adjustable supine standing frame till.<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n The three-year-old and his sister Charlotte are real characters. They have just torn apart their play room to see if all the toys are still there. The family who are from Leer have not been home for several weeks. Felix, who suffers from infantile cerebral palsy with tetraspasticity as a result of a lack of oxygen at birth, was last operated on in southern Germany. Afterwards, he and his family went to Slovakia for rehabilitation. His favourite toys and the cat were missing. Although the cat was initially offended when he returned, he now joins Felix on the carpet for cuddles.<\/p>\n Cognitively fit, but physically limited<\/strong><\/p>\n “He can turn from his back to his stomach and use his forearms for support but much more is not possible,” says his mother Suleika. She and her husband Falko assume that he is cognitively fit and takes everything in attentively. Unfortunately, Felix cannot speak, but he has the same interests as other boys his age: “Ball games, cars and Peppa Pig,” says Suleika with a laugh, but he does have physical limitations. At the dining table, they have to position their son in the seat. Not at the chest, but with a pelvic belt, because he is often hyperextended.<\/p>\n Felix has been making progress for a few months now due to the support given by the till. \u00a0“What we like is that the till.<\/em><\/a> is easy to adjust and easy to use,” says the 26-year-old. Another advantage: the standing trainer can be moved almost all the way down in an upright position. Felix now stands several times a day and has fun doing it and he is not alone.<\/p>\n\n
