We got COVID and could not walk, we lost all our muscle in our body and had to learn to do things like pick up stuff, balance, to help stand and use the walker to walk again so we could get out of the wheelchairs, relearn to take a shower, and how to pace ourselves. We are so much better now; at least we get to go home with all the great job and caring that each and everyone of them gave us. These are the best group of therapy people you will ever have. They are the best in our eyes and body!!!

I have really improved!! I really enjoyed my time here!!!
