cycling and skiing for cp children

Hi there, Are there any parents out there whose children have learned to ride a bike and/or ski despite suffering from cerebral palsy? Our daughter has spastic diplegia, is mobile and expected to start walking at some point. My husband and I are very keen skiers and always assumed she would be on skis as soon as she is big enough for the equipment. My husband still thinks it's going happen (only later than originally hoped of course), but I'm not sure at all. I also wonder now if she'll ever be able to ride a normal bike. I asked our physio about bike riding the other day and she said she certainly will be able to, but then mentioned special trikes. I don't want to give up hope yet though that she might be able to ride a normal bike eventually. So any experience you can share with me regarding children having achieved these things despite having some form and degree of cerebral palsy, please let me know. |
