The bike, which has straps for her feet and one that holds her to the seat, would cost $3,000 if not for the contest.

"It will help her work really hard and improve her muscles and even get her to that walking and even so she can interact with the kids in the neighborhood and cousins and friends without feeling like she's different," Laura Ostrowski told WDJT.

Voting is free and you can cast your vote every day until March 31.
