T12 Incomplete Paraplegic from Connecticut, Tyler Fielstra, less than 1 year post-injury

11/15/2018

 
While traversing the most difficult experience of my life I gained a deeper boldness of hope and strength to get through it, but not solely on my own abilities but by the might and will of my community combined with mine. This is why I believe in the effort of organizations such as More Than Walking. To come out on the other side of a traumatic injury a better, stronger person you need the support of community. Gleaning knowledge from others that have been through something similar is critical to the process of finding a new defiant wholeness no matter the ailment.
