born paralyzed from the waist down. Alyna had little chance of being cared for in their future. But a therapist ALYN children's hospital in Israel was interested in his case and offered help with a special device. The interesting thing is that Alyna is a rabbit, but his situation has inspired n Rebuilding children around the hospital.
Found in a local hostel Israeli Alyna, a year old, came to ALYN when he was only three months old. While ALYN had a full service animal therapy for patients, the owners knew that the little Alina could probably serve a different purpose during your stay in place. "The idea of \u200b\u200bbringing it began more like madness than anything else," said Cathy Lanyard on Executive Director of Friends of the Hospital to PEOPLEPets.com ALYN. "But this became a challenge. So it really became part of our animal family. "
The attachment that uses Alyna - and also used ALYN-disabled children in a RGO brace, which wraps around the waist and legs." Through a system of movements arm balance, the rider almost feel as if walking, "says Lanyard." It's not comfortable, it is hard and many children feel afraid of it. "Technically designed for humans, the engine has had the same effect on Alyna when use, allowing you to move forward (without jumping) using its front legs.
Since
Alyna ALYN arrived, the boys "have been fascinated," says Lanyard. "You can put the device to the bunny, and see the difference in motion when she is in or out of this," he explains. "And instead, it distances them from fear, and makes it much fun. Instead of discomfort, they feel the mobility."
Although Alyna is the only animal of its kind in ALYN (the others are several rabbits, which, turtles and birds without problems in their bodies), Lanyard said that hospital staff would be open to adopt animal to another disabled in the future, based on the success they have had with this adorable rabbit. "It's amazing to see" says. "Sometimes just a simple innovation creates a huge difference."
