Description: Father and son with special needs

Cerebral palsy is non-lethal, non-communicable diseases, not curable, and non-progressive (not compounded). It is one of the more common physical disabilities in school-age pupils. It is managed through therapy and education. With proper treatment and training, persons with CP improve physically, mentally and socially. The sooner treatment starts, the better.

Dick Hoyt of Hoyt TEAM (From Sports Illustrated, By Rick Reilly) has pushed his son Rick eighty-five times the 26.2 miles in marathons. Eight times he has not only pushed him 26.2 miles in a wheelchair but also towed him 2.4 miles in a dinghy while swimming and pedalled him 112 miles in a seat on the handlebars - all in one day.
