Meet Kade. He is an eight year old little boy who loves baseball and anything really that involves being active and playing outside. Kade was born with a condition that has caused him to develop more slowly than other kids his age. He has been receiving equine therapy (physical therapy on horseback) for his condition at Rocky Top Therapy Center in Keller, TX for the past four years now. When Kade first came to Rocky Top, he was a four year old who could only use sign language for communication, and had a hard time walking without falling. He couldn't even run. In the past four years, Kade has not only learned how to speak and communicate so well, but now he runs, jumps, and even plays baseball!
In more recent months, Kade's therapy has become a financial burden for his family, but they have worked hard to do all they can to keep him coming every week so he can ride "his horse" Sheba. He can barely contain his excitement when he comes to ride her every week, doing his exercises on horseback so enthusiastically and energetically. We can't imagine not seeing Kade's smiling face every week, but funds have run out and we your help. The growth that is still in store for Kade both physically and mentally is uncharted, he's well on the way to catching up to other kids his age and continuing to excel. This therapy has been key in his development and will surely be in the future. And that's why we need your help.
The first fundraiser is scheduled for Sunday, September 15th in Denton Square. We will be on the courthouse lawn - more information soon. All checks may be made payable to Rocky Top Therapy Center and designated as "therapy for Kade."
