Carsyns’ Custom Ride

Filed Under: Family, Parenting, Special Needs Tagged With: carsyn, cerebral palsy, goto seat, Holoprosencephaly, rc big foot

If you follow me on instagram you know that we recently bought Carsyn the Firefly GoTo Seat thanks to the amazing donations from you all. Well we have been using it a ton in many different ways. I think our favorite use so far was tonight. Kenny had built the Remote Controlled Big Foot Power Wheels awhile back but we never found a good solution to help Carsyn sit up straight. Carsyn would enjoy it for a few minutes and then start slouching or slipping. Which in turn would make him fuss. Over the winter we didn’t use it much but Kenny pulled it out tonight and I said, “Let’s try the GoTo Seat.” We strapped it to Big Foot and then strapped Carsyn in. He absolutely LOVED it.

Carsyns' Custom Ride

Carsyn rode in his Big Foot Power Wheels for at least 30 minutes and did not fuss once. He even had some races with Dustyn in his Power Wheels. This photo just tells the whole story. He was so excited to be beside his Bubba. Just look at that sweet smile. I love that this is something they can do together as brothers.

Carsyns' Custom Ride
Here is a short video of them racing. Amazing, right? Kenny did such a wonderful job building this Big Foot for Carsyn.

I love this little guy so much. His smile is contagious and he makes my days brighter. I can not even imagine my life with out him.

The Firefly GoTo Seat is really amazing and so versatile. Next on our list is to order the Upsee Harness! I can not wait to get that for Carsyn!

If you have a child with special needs I highly recommend getting a GoToSeat. No I was not paid to say this, I just love it so much.
