I just got it Rayna. For those of you who haven't
recieved it it is an exercise peice of equipment that
has hand and foot pedals and you excerise biking
motions while lying one your back. Most of the
patients had to have their arms and feet strapped to
the pedal to enable them to pedal. The theory is that
the bicycling motion trains the brain in proper
recipical crawling(right hand,left leg,and then
switch)I think it's called patterning in some branches
of therapy.
I'd rather just put Alex on his tricycle and let him
him pedal away with his   brothers and friends than
buy that and ruin the fun for him.
