"I'm Henry Terborg and I'm 6 years old. I was born with congenital CMV, which caused my cerebral palsy, hearing loss and makes a lot of things in life physically challenging for me to do on my own. Regardless of these challenges, I am just a happy kid that LOVES animals and doing what everyone else is doing, especially my big sister. One thing that I CAN do just like her is ride a horse! I first started riding Lizzie and now I ride Rufus and Tater Tot at Manes for Movement. As soon as we arrive every Saturday morning, I help Ms. Erin put on my helmet and belt before signing to my horse that it's time to "Go, go, go!" I can ride Tater Tot facing forward, backward or even on my knees like a trick rider. I like to find toys around the ring while I ride and then put them in the basket.... but usually after I've hid them in my shirt! My first few lessons I was not a happy camper because of sensory issues with the helmet, but knowing I now get to ride the horses as soon as I put it on means I can't get ready fast enough! Riding all the horses has also dramatically helped to improve my posture and balance. After my ride each week, I get to practice other skills like chopping up apples & carrots for the horses that I get to slam dunk into snack buckets. I carefully inspect each piece to make sure it's just perfect for my four legged friends before walking with Ms Erin to the various stalls or signaling my horse to come join me by the barn. Sometimes I even get to sit on the steps with my friend Kelly and feed the horses the snacks I made. Please help support Manes for Movement this month so that Rufus, Tater Tot and all the other therapy horses will remain well fed and taken care of! I love being able to participate in an activity just like my big sister!"
