I am a C2 ventilated quadriplegic and I started this Foundation to find a cure for paralysis.

I want to walk again. I want to stand up and hug my family again and I want to see my friends with injuries do the same. 🙌

👇This is what it is all about friends! Without long-term activity-based rehabilitation, cell transplantation alone will not be successful. We are preparing to begin an Australian-first Intensive Rehabilitation Trial here is Queensland. Learn more here; https://t.co/oO4r8fT6TH

Today marks 27 years post injury. It has been a challenging journey to say the least, however, I’m extremely grateful to have such a great community around me. 💚 I feel optimistic and motivated by the pursuit of finding a cure for paralysis. Everything is possible!

Today I enjoyed the privilege of having pancakes and ice cream with Chanaye, who suffered a spinal cord injury in a motor vehicle accident seven months ago. Now a T2 paraplegic, Chanaye has the most incredible outlook on life. What an inspiration. 🙌🏻

Never one to shy away from a little adventure, you can see in these pictures Perry Cross AM hasn't let anything get in his way. It's amazing to think that this little toddler had no way of knowing the incredible impact he would have on the world. Everything really is possible. 💚

Check out this incredible microscopic image from our research lab! This was taken by Dr Ronak Reshamwala, from the Spinal Injury Project team, and shows olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) which have been transplanted as a spheroid into the injured spinal cord (OECs are red).

We are excited to let you know our Intensive Rehabilitation Trial is progressing! The Spinal Injury Project Team had an important meeting with the contract research organisation and the final protocol was reviewed which ensures the trial will comply with good clinical practice.

Long-term rehabilitation programs can improve health outcomes like joint function and blood flow and as a result can enhance mobility and independence. Read more here; https://t.co/1jkjtnXvGM
