Incredible Success

I just wanted to add a video that I came across while researching yesterday's presentation. It's of a young woman's journey through rehabilitating a T12 ASIA C spinal cord injury:

An inury at T12 will involve her entire lower body from the waist down, including hip and knee flexors and extensors, the hip abductors and the hip adductors. The grading of her injury as "ASIA C" means that, fortunately, there is some preserved muscle control and strength of these lower body muscles, although there will be deficits in at least half of the muscles that you and I will take for granted every time we walk, sit down in a chair, or even simply stand still and maintain our balance.

Rechelle's example of hard work and dedication is both inspiring and humbling at the same time. Be grateful not only for the ability to improve yourself, but for examples like Rechelle that show us that with enough effort and dedication, anything is truly possible.
