When you are paralyzed you hope everyday that a somehow you feel a little bit more than you do now. I remember asking a friend to tickle my feet when I was in the hospital bed, to see if they would react. But nothing happened. Now and then I still try because I have hope. Even though I have a complete injury I still hope one day at some point, improvement will happen. I have these brushes that use to touch the skin underneath my feet... Just to see if something happens.
