August’s Story

While muscular dystrophy prevents August from using his legs, his Permobil M300 3G provides him with the mobility he needs to independently thrive at school and in life.

Charley’s Story

Julia’s Story

Julia dreams of becoming the first female paraplegic general surgeon. The Tek RMD helps to make the cadaver lab, and one day the surgery stage, accessible and comfortable. Physically being on the same level as her classmates reminds Julia that she is no different and gives her confidence in her abilities.

Karen’s Story

Karen has tried numerous standing devices in the past, but never one as functional as the Tek RMD. She has benefited from the small footprint and ability to remain upright while moving around her home. It really is the small things that matter to Karen – like cleaning out her cabinets and the freezer all on her own.

Bill’s Story

After a cycling accident, Bill — a husband, father and athlete — found himself living life in a wheelchair. The transition was difficult. At six-feet tall, he often felt “talked down to,” making social situations uncomfortable. Then, Bill discovered the Tek Robotic Mobilization Device (RMD) that allows him to navigate a more active and engaging life.

Garon’s Story

As Garon started to outgrow store-bought strollers, his mom realized it was time to look for an alternative. She thought it would be tough to find an ideal solution before an upcoming family vacation. Numotion found the perfect fit for Garon and delivered his new stroller within a week, allowing the family to focus on having fun at Disney World.
