Exclamation OMG! 1st time in 15 yrs
I have muscular distrophy,particularly "drop foot" and haven't been able to walk very far without risk of tripping over my own toes.I just got my 1st set of leg braces and what a differance it has made. For the first time sence I've lived here I took my Bon Bon,[15lb poodle] ,for a walk around the block. We both had fun. I'm thinking that maybe I can do this every day. I'm also thinking maybe I'm not as disabled as I thought. Maybe this crack in the door will lead to wider possibilities!

How wonderful for you (and Bon Bon)! No doubt the possibilities are endless now that you've found this new outlet. Good luck to you, and thanks for providing me with a motivational boost I'm sorely needing today.
