all joking aside...

Robb's new approach to walking really is an amazing improvement. When he makes an effort to use his shoulders, and walk more symetrically, he walks as quickly as I've seen him walk in the year since his accident.

The problem is that he still needs a cane (for stability) when we walks outside our home, and that gives him a very assymetrical gait, and doesn't allow him to use his new-found style of walking.

Perhaps we need to outfit his trekking poles with little rubber feet, and have him use to poles for walking.....
