Butiki and Lara, what do you know? The walk and the bike ride to nowhere looks exactly the same in the US as it does in Australia and the UK!!! Just keep going. If you can walk or peddle another minute, that's progress!

I'm very happy today because the rehab department have lent me a walker to take home today while we wait for the one I have been funded for. Its really good because now I can walk at home a few times a day to build up my strength and use it on weekends, as I don't think that physio 3 days a week is enough. so I will take a video of me walking at home and post it up here in the next few days, Thanks DJ . It's made me happy because I feel I am doing more now.

Just do it

Butiki....its great that you have a walker at home now...your on the right track! ...Build up your walking each day and your confidence and stamina will increase.

I started on a walker and used it for some time...it felt sooo strange when i went onto crutches but i know you will get there too. Keep up the great work

I know I wake with pain each and every day and I know what a struggle it can be to keep fighting. But as you say butiki you do what you can do and that's as much as anyone can do in their given situation. I think your family must be soooooo proud of your achievements in such a short space of time. Also that it was a life changing situation for them too I can see why you would love them sooooooooooo much :)keep up the fantastic work you should feel sooooooo proud of yourself

2014 is going to be a positive year.
