I did see one quadriplegic (C5 incomplete) who was able to learn to walk with some assistance (one cane) about one year after finishing his initial rehabilitation. He, however, backslid later on when he became addicted to drugs, but there was some potential there. The overwhelming majority of people usually don't improve that much after their initial rehabilitation, but if they continue to work hard they can consistently progress to point where they might be able to do much more than if they didn't work on it. Notice all of the conditionals I put into this paragraph.
Basically it doesn't happen that often.
