August 2019 Client of the Month, Eddie!

Push to Walk’s August 2019 Client of the Month is Eddie! Eddie recently started working out with no AFO on his left foot. He is able to walk on an inclined treadmill and has increased the speed of his walking throughout the last 2 years.  He has improved his hip flexion and can now walk over hurdles or up steps more easily and is also able to walk on soft surfaces without falling. His balance has improved so much that he can confidently walk at home without his AFO as well.  For the first time this summer, Eddie walked on the sandy beach without a cane. He plans to return to the beach in September and try to walk without any walking aids. Additionally, he has been practicing relearning how to drive to gain more independence.  Way to go, Eddie!
