  2. wow jeremy, i just watched some of your blog videos and had to hold back not only one tear. It's really, really 'big' of you how you handled your situation so positively and so full of faith and optimism! I'm so happy that all this improves so well now!!! Keep up the good work so that you can post a video of you running around maybe in some time ?
  3. Looking very good Jeremy! Keep it up!
  4. Originally posted by haytrainWell everyone....Eight and a half weeks later, I'm walking out of the hospital tomorrow. Granted, I'll be using 2 canes to help steady myself, but considering I was paralyzed from the waist down the day of the injury, I can't complain. I said from the beginning "If I have to walk with canes or a walker for the rest of my life, I'll do it. I just want to walk again."

    Well....I'm there.

    Thanks again for all the support....

    That's just fantastic, Jeremy!
  5. I actually friggin' cried!!! That's so awesome! Let us know how it is being at home - yet another transition in this strange journey you're on! Props to you, man. Oh, and a hug, cuz that's the kinda gal I am!
  6. Awesome progress Jeremy! Congratulations!
  7. This topic is a testament to why U2start is the best forum on the internet. I've been so encouraged by everyone's responses and well-wishing....it's amazing. Thank you all so much for supporting me through this weird journey that I've been on the past two months. I'll never forget it.

    As some of you know, I was discharged from the hospital yesterday and am now dealing with the brand new challenge of trying to fit back into a "normal" life. I'll still be getting some therapy, but a majority of the strength-building and conditioning that I do will come from doing the everyday tasks. Wish me luck!

    Here's a video I put together of me walking out of the rehab hospital yesterday. Quite an emotional experience.....

    Simply brilliant. There's not really much else to say. To think it was only 2 months ago that we were all fearing the worst for you, and now you waltz out of the hospital back on your own two feet.

    You're an inspiration to us all

    (PS - I couldn't help but laugh when there was the shot of you going into the lift/elevator, because I felt sorry for your friend holding the camera because they'd have to leg it down the stairs or something in quick time to be shooting you walking out of the front doors pretty soon after! )
