David had two physical therapy sessions this week, and his progress is becoming more visible. During one morning session, he trialed a gait trainer that allows him to practice walking while supported, without being attached to an overhead harness. In the video, you can see his legs engaging and initiating movement on their own.
Ina second therapy session at Total Motion Physical Therapy, David pushed himself through a challenging strength session. He completed three full bridge holds, each lasting a full minute. On the final set, additional weight was added. He struggled at first, but stayed focused and completed the movement.
He also worked through progressive leg extensions with ankle weights, increasing steadily through each set and finishing with a weight that would have been out of reach just weeks ago. The improvement since his last session was significant.
Recovery is built one session at a time. Progress does not always come all at once, but consistency, effort, and determination matter. David continues to show all three.
Thank you for following his journey and for standing with him as he works toward greater independence.
