but i just had to pass this on I WALKED YESTERDAY one hundred and eighty feet without any support , no walker, no cane and most of all no wheelchair  .I also walked over 800 feet with the walker with only two rest stops .I am starting to believe that I will be back walking . Maybe not as good as before, but after two years of wheelchair It is a areal good sign .Sorry bout being so self centered but I  can't help it .   GOD bless all   bob w.

That is WONDERFUL PROGRESS!!!!

Now, just keep going, little by little increasing the repetition, and soon you will be stronger and more stable.
Thanks for letting me know how you're doing.

That's not being self centered, that's being proud.
Regaining ability to walk just didn't happen, it came with a lot of hard work.
Congratulations, Bob.

Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Proud, yes.  It's also letting friends know, and making them feel good about his progress.

Great job. I am sure over time you will progress. Keep trying never give up.

And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
