Thanks to our Thriver community, here are Ryder’s top 5 essentials for kids living with cancer (with help from his mom, Tara!):
1 Little Heroes Hospital Gowns
These gowns feature detachable capes and plastic snaps for medical access, helping kids feel heroic rather than sick.
2 Portable Air Conditioner
Essential for managing Ryder’s heat-triggered seizures, these AC units keep our home cool, especially near the beach.
3 Juicer
Perfect for incorporating fruits, vegetables, and necessary supplements into Ryder’s diet, especially when solid foods are challenging.
4 Electric Trike
Offers safe, outdoor fun with features like seatbelts and a spine-protecting seat, ideal for children with spinal conditions.
5 EZYRoller
A low-riding toy that ensures safety, provides exercise, and keeps fun high on the agenda even with mobility concerns.
