Muscular Dystrophy (MD) are inspiring, and Isaac Aragon is no exception. Aragon is a
17-year-old high school student who has not let MD slow him down
much.
Although he visits Moscow Mountain Sport & Physical Therapy
on a regular basis, he has not had the aid of power mobility
equipment and has had suffered through some falls. His physical
therapist, Joanna Alford MPT, contacted The SCOOTER Store after
noticing how limited his balance and walking had become. His PT for
nearly three years, she believed he was at risk for more falls and

Yesterday afternoon, The SCOOTER Store along
with the ADL Foundation, provided

“Isaac is a typical high-school student in all ways but one.
