Ellen Show and the ZipZac

OKAY! All my friends and family...please take 30 seconds to fill out this letter to the Ellen Show. A fellow Spina Bifida mama has written this letter (below in my comments) trying to support the ZipZac. Its a basically a bumbo seat with wheels to help our children move around as well as other children. Its an awesome invention and there are some families that can't afford it because it's pretty expensive and insurance doesn't cover it! Help us out!! Fill out your info and copy and paste the letter in the "tell us your story" here's the link to the Ellen Show http://ellen.warnerbros.com/show/respond/?PlugID=10 (The letter is below) Thanks! 

 

 Dear Ellen,
Imagine being a toddler paralyzed since birth and unable to reach many of your toys. Imagine being a parent watching your child struggle and being told by medical specialists to ‘just put your child in a stroller’ since they are unable to use their legs. This is what we went through on a daily basis, but now there is hope.
It all started with the need to give toddlers that are too small for a standard pediatric wheelchair a chance to keep up with their peers. Children needed to have the ability to explore their world, without limitations, something to encourage their blossoming and eager minds.
Now for the good news! Two passionate engineers took on the challenge after seeing one little boy facing this dilemma. It turns out that their invention allows an infant and toddler more independence and mobility than a pediatric wheelchair, and is out-of-this-world awesome! They now call it the ZipZac™ and many children and families are desperately in need of one as well.
The ZipZac™ has reached many children already, even around the globe. Unfortunately, many families are not able to find the resources to purchase one as most health insurance companies only pay for one wheelchair every 5 years.
I’m writing to you today to ask for your help. Please check out the ZipZac™ website (www.myzipzac.com) and their facebook page to read some of the testimonies! Would you consider making the ZipZac™ a feature on your show and give many more families hope?
