Guest guest Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Courage: When Holly had her accident the ER Doc said that her spinal cord was severed and that she would never walk. She heard him tell her husband Walt and our son Jeff this. GRRRRRR He was wrong and last Thursday, for those of you that didn't hear me yell, she moved her big toe. Hopefully by now you know what is going on and the prayers made the changes for Andréa and baby. What ever you need, you have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in Texas.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 It is great to hear that Holly is making progress. I was also paralyzed from the waist down a little over 2 years ago. They didn't know if I would walk again or not. Thankfully they never told me that I wouldn't. However, I remember very well the first day that my big toe moved!! It is a long slow road, but physical therapy is the best thing that can be done to get back everything that is possible. If there is anyway to get her into aquatherapy that is a huge help. I wish her the best and hope and pray that she makes a full recovery!! Re: Re: OT - Back from Emerg Dept. > Courage > Please know that and her baby are in my prayers.
