SCI Research Update
Here's a link to an exciting new research breakthrough that was featured on the Today Show this morning. (No, I'm not a regular watcher of the Today Show. I'm a View guy, everyone knows that.) It involves rats, as most trials do at their earliest stages, who undergo a controlled spinal cord injury, and with the help of electrical stimulation and daily ambulation on a treadmill similar, albeit smaller, to the one I use, the rats have been experiencing exciting results.

Walking
Here is some long awaited video. I walk like this, using the harness and treadmill or over ground, at least two times per week. As my leg strength has returned, it has become easier and some of the forward swing of the leg is being supplied by yours truly. Not much, but some. Stay tuned for more video to come.
