Walk with Walker: A Race to Restore

The Walk with Walker: A Race to Restore - A 5k fundraiser for children at Pediatric Therapy Center  Join us at Brazos River Park for a timed run/walk, shop from our local vendors, and play on the playground to help benefit children with disabilities who's families are having a hard time getting the speech, physical, and occupational therapy needed due to insurance limitations. Stay tuned for other fun possibilities! The Walk with Walker started as a Walk FOR Walker while our son was in the hospital. We received so much love and support through it that truly touched our family. Walker was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and goes to 3 hours of therapy 3 days a week. Pediatric Therapy Center has helped Walker meet many milestones. Our weekly routine looks very similar to a lot of those with children of disabilities, and it has become abundantly clear how hard it is to battle insurance for the amount of therapy needed. For example, an allotted amount of 30- 60 sessions/days of physical therapy for the year should suffice for a muscle injury, but if you have a disability, that does not come close to enough. Therapy sessions can start at $125. It adds up fast, but the need remains the same. This affects the livelihood and independence of children. Early intervention is crucial for the best chance of success, but many cannot afford to continue to pay out of pocket.  Pediatric Therapy Center has been treating children of various disabilities from all over the Houston area since 1982. They has helped a countless number of children achieve their goals over those years. PTC provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy for all forms of disabilities. My son is able to walk, communicate, and support with his weaker arm now thanks to them, and I want to help provide the same opportunity for success for other children. The proceeds will go directly to the Center.
