Guest guest Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Guess who learned how to ride a 2 wheel bike!!!! Liv has been hospital free for over 2 yrs now and our lives seem to be getting normal. Having a severely twisted spine since 5 months old and having to wear casts/braces w/ neck support for so many years, didnt allow her to see her feet...Let alone master a bike. I was able to find a low rider bike with a banana seat, white wall tires and handle bars that are high, so its ergonomically correct for her spine. Naturally, she was scared...But, after 5 tries with help from my strong lil brother, she did it!!!! Im sooo happy right now! My girl FINALLY gets to ride a bike like her friends. She can finally have the wind in her hair and experience the independence/freedom bike riding gives you. Way to face your fears Liv!!! Way to grow up my darling:) She learned in SLC a couple of days ago and Im waiting to get video from my bro. If I ever get it, Ill share as this is a HUGE milestone for my girl. Just had to share as I know you all can relate. HRH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 That´s great news!!! I'm very happy for Liv and you!! I really feel identify with your story, and hope will reach Liv´s age enjoying life as you do! She just turned 2 last friday and was with a rough cold that kept me really frightened. Luckily she is recovering now and is running around again. We are in winter and temperatures are really low!!!!! Lot of cold weather!!! We are travelling to SLC next 9 of August, hope to meet some of you guys there!Love,naMom to fina (4th cast SLC)On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 7:06 PM, <heather@...> wrote: Guess who learned how to ride a 2 wheel bike!!!!
