1 \ Page 12 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, October 14, 1998 A Walker with Hart Device Improves Mobility for Children with Cerebral Palsy by Jennifer Stone Staff Writer Children with cerebral cerebral palsy may be able to walk, thanks to a walker being promoted by a local Rotarian. Ron Murdock, of the Whitby Sunrise Rotary Club, told members of Bowmanvillc's club about the Hart Walker at last Thursday's meeting. The walker was designed by a man named David Hart in England. It was studied at the Hugh MacMillan Centre in Toronto, where it was deemed successful. successful. But, the cost of building building the device, which consists of 32 moving parts, was prohibitive. So, Rotarians from Windsor look it upon themselves to build them. Using parts developed developed by local Windsor companies, and the tal- "Iheir appetite improves; their breathing improves; their general condition of health improves;/' ents of eight retired Rotarians, they put most of each device together. The walkers come in three sizes - small, medium medium and large. They can be used by children from ages eight through 16, depending on the size of the child. With the help of the walker, children formerly confined to wheelchairs arc able to stand, walk, and even run. Murdock hopes other Rotary Clubs will become involved in helping helping pay for the orthotic medical help required to allow a child to use the walker. If the child is deemed a good candidate candidate for the walker, the Windsor Rotary Club provides the device for free. But, with no gov ernment assistance to help pay for the medical treatment involved with the device, families have to pay about $2,700 for the care. As well, special shoes, at a cost of about $250, are must be worn while in the walker. "I have personally seen a child go into the walker ... he's pretty thrilled," says Murdock, adding, "When he's standing up, he's part of the team. He can turn a light switch on, lie can throw a ball back and forth. A real smile comes to their face." Murdock says he knows of at least four children in Bowmanville who would benefit from the walker. He says it really helps a child with cerebral palsy. "Their appetite improves; their breathing improves; their general condition of health improves," he says. MOVING RIGHT ALONG - Six-year-old Marshall Hohmann uses the Hart Walker to be much more mobile. His mother, Paula, says the walker has helped Marshall use all the proper muscles to get around. Currently, Marshall is in the smallest size of the walker, and will move up a size around Christmas. "He's so happy when he's in it," says his mom. looking V • ..
