“My kid gets married August 1st. Guess what? I’m going to dance at his wedding. Prior to this, I wasn’t even sure if I was going to be able to be there all night.

I’ve had multiple accidents. Even with the injuries, nothing stopped me. I was very active, deep woods camping, fishing, kayaking, I coached football for 10 years.

Five years ago, it changed. I couldn’t do anything anymore except work. Life changed for the worst. I was googling and found TOPS and Dr. Roland Kent. And if there was an opportunity to get a device that was going to preserve motion, yeah, not even a choice.

15 days after surgery I was walking almost two miles. I can’t explain. I can feel my legs again. Before the surgery, the neuropathy was in the bottoms of my feet, and I haven’t felt the bottoms of my feet for three years. My life is back. I’m looking forward to everything again and then some. Whatever I want. I’m not going to be limited.”
