8 1/2 years + with TM for Terry and he just spontaneously walked at our
friends house the other last night. (Our friend being follow TM-er Rick
Steele).
He stands up from his wheelchair all the time and cooks, gardens, etc. He
sometimes walks up stairs with the support of the banisters and has taken a
few steps unassisted before. But, last night he just got up and walked
without
any support or assistance for a total of perhaps 40 steps! He was quite
well balanced, all things considered.
My suggestion to him was to get out the walker and the arm crutches and
clean off the cobwebs and start practicing more at home. It's just amazing
how
much progress Terry has made. He's so determined and has such a good
attitude through all his pain.
For those of you that went from a wheelchair to walking or walking with
assistance, what helped you? Any advise is greatly appreciated!
