Dinosaurs Are Motivation
Jeremiah was fitted for his first wheelchair at Riley Children’s Health.
While Jeremiah learned to move around in his new chair, his occupational therapist held a toy dinosaur to help encourage Jeremiah to push his chair close to her. Jeremiah quickly learned how to push the wheels to get to the toy dinosaur.

Can-Do Spirit Makes One Patient Unstoppable
Before a spinal cord injury, Jeremiah played football, basketball and he boxed. He also was cultivating his drawing talents—specifically anime.
When Jeremiah arrived at Ranken Jordan a month after his injury, he was weak and admits to being scared and nervous. By the second day, he was out of his room socializing and ready to get stronger.
“I couldn’t do push-ups or get myself out of bed when I first came,” Jeremiah says. “But they motivate you here. rdquo;
Inspired by the team and his own determination, Jeremiah worked hard in physical therapy and greatly improved his upper body strength. Push-ups are a snap for him now.

Who needs Superman?
One of the mottos of the pandemic has been "Not all heroes wear capes," and Scottish Rite for Children patient Nicolas agrees with that. He was so inspired by the heroes he saw working hard, he put aside superhero costumes and decided to dress up like the heroes around him.

Clear Masks Are A Game Changer
The connection between mouth sounds and letter combinations is one of the hardest things to understand as a dyslexic student. Traditional masks created a learning barrier for students and instructors in the Scottish Rite for Children lab. To make sure students received the specialized instruction, safely and in a way that they could still see and imitate the mouth movements of the instructor, kids were equipped with clear masks.
