Paraplegic walking with walker, No braces!!!

I bought a walker and first thing I did was went home to make a video for all you to see. I have no braces and this is 1 year and 6 months after my accident of being paralized from breaking my T5 vertabrate. I have been working hard to get this far but still a long road ahead to go. I will be married next year May and plan on walking in the wedding with no walker. Goes to show that whatever you put your mind to you can do. Dont ever give up on anything. God Bless!!!

So i been getting some private messages from people that have similar problems and cant walk. I want you to know that I was told that I would never ever even feel my legs again... But Im sorry mans words I dont believe. God is the one that has the last say in everything we do and my faith in him and not letting go his word is what has got me this far and will get me to a full recovery. Its up to you how much you believe deep in your heart that you can walk and change your life...

Dude, I KNOW you are going to be able to walk before your wedding. Keep practicing! Just do it! I know for a fact that you aren't going to give up because you are a very determined person. So next time I see you, I want to see you walking ok? at least with some support or something. ok well, God bless you!

That's awesome! I'm t3/t4 incomplete suffering from Brown Sequard Syndrome from a gunshot wound. My right leg is %100 while my left leg is only about %50. I walk with a walker but the leg is always hyper extended when i walk and i get tired after like 10-15 steps. I'm hopeing to get a brace made really soon so it will stop my ankle from collapsing when i put pressure on it.

Keep up the good work and congrats. I'm rooting for you and all my other fellow para's.. we have to stick together!
