Jim entered Presidio Sport and Medicine July 11, 2001 in a wheelchair. Due to a fall, which required surgery and the placement of hardware in his heels to stabilize the fractures, he was unable to bear weight through his legs for 2.5 months. As a result, he had significant difficulty regaining his ability to walk once his fractures had healed.

After months of hard work and perseverance Jim is now able to walk at a normal pace -- up and down stairs and hills. He has regained about 90% of his capabilities prior to his accident and continues to get stronger. Congratulations Jim on achieving your goals and for continuing to aim high.
