Ending Paralysis

Bringing awareness to find a cure.

Seeing E hit a pitch from a UofL baseball player and high-5 the Christian Academy baseball team was the reminder I needed that this life is still beautiful even amid the struggle. “Helping one person might not change the world, but it could change the world for one person."

Urgent/fervent prayers for an SCI warrior who is EXTREMELY important to us. Nolan is in the PICU w/pneumonia and we need him to turn a corner—and FAST! He needs all prayers and positive energy directed straight toward him. We love you Nolan, and we have your back! ❤️❤️

Sept is SCI awareness month and a cure is no longer a question of if but when. This little warrior isn’t going to just sit around and wait for the cure. There’s too much fun to be had.

“Prepare,” the drs said when she was injured. “Her life is going to be very difficult.”Apparently they didn’t know what a warrior this little girl is. She couldn’t do this A WEEK ago.This is what hard work looks like. This is what hope looks like.This is what RECOVERY looks like.

We don't always get to choose where life takes us, but we always get to choose how we react to what the universe throws at us. Here's to striving for the right form of "wealth."

3yrs ago Eden had an SCI. 3 mins w/her & her wheelchair’s the last thing you c. She’s a swimmer/actress/straight-A student/daughter/sister/friend. Proud to partner w/Reeve on #SeeUs-putting attention where it should be—on the PERSON, not the CHAIR. #ReeveSeeUs #StandForEden

When Eden was injured, her doctors said to prepare for a very limited future for her. 3 years later, she has straight-As, rock-solid friends, and, in this video, is identical to her sister swimming. The moral of this story? Don’t let someone else determine your future.

“This was just what I was asking about!” Weeks ago Eden asked why she never saw anyone on tv/movies in wheelchairs. Regular people with regular lives wheeling around. Today we popped into a store and she saw this. Thank you, American Eagle Outfitters for giving her this moment.

Trunk stability makes all the differnce in the world when u're an 8yr old. The fact that she can throw and catch a ball with hands up without even the hint of a wobble shows that recovery IS possible. Keep fighting, little one. You didn't ask to be our inspiration, but u sure are
