The little girl and the family were soooooo nice. We discussed the accessories that are being developed and they brought out some 3D printed things they got off Etsy. This tiny “wrench” used to help with a feeding tube - $10-, I could print a tray of 50 of them in a couple hours. A holder for a pump - $40-, and they said that there are no good avenues to purchase these devices. Now I know, I know, someone designed them and this is a limited market, but I believe we have a huge area that we can expand into down the road. The little girl can’t walk, but she was able to move around in the TMT and they sent me a video in the house how she was able to move around, the smile on her face 
I am so grateful to be a part of this community and this project. Thank you everyone who is here.

we are working on the ability for families to put “new device” requests in. then a designer will pick it up, design the thing.. then someone can make it.
those fit right into that wheelhouse.

That is fabulous… This project, at least from a somewhat outsiders view, is moving at light speed. I hope on the back end you have the help you need.
The little girls family sent me a short video of the girl moving around independently through the house. This is something that she has not been able to do and you can hear the Mother’s excitement in her voice. She has a very rare genetic abnormality, Dad said only 20 ever diagnosed. One challenge is her muscles are very weak, so just seeing her stand is a big deal, but being able to use her arms and move is amazing. This will help tremendously in muscle developement.

We have some incredible tooling behind the scenes that is allowing the platform to grow and mold as we see needs/refinement arrising. Its very different already from the original vision.
