This is the best e-mail I have received since I was stricken with TM in June.  I know I am a newbie and haven’t been at it as long as most of you all.   I do get depressed at times, but this gives me such hope.  I am so happy for Terry and his family.

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!
