HI MY NAME IS JENNIFER TRAN AND I AM A BRAIN ANEURYSM SURVIVOR. I LIVED IN A FACILITY FOR ABOUT THREE YEARS, AND WAS TOLD I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO WALK OR FUNCTION FOR MYSELF... I COULD NOT SETTLE FOR THAT... I WAS IN A WHEEL CHAIR AND WORE DIAPERS FOR THE TIME I WAS THERE... I WAS DETERMINED TO WALK AGAIN .... THE PHYSICAL THERAPIST HAD TOLD ME AT THE TIME THAT THERE WASN'T MUCH THEY COULD DO FOR ME AND I WAS STUCK... I NEVER THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO GO HOME...BUT WITH ALL MY WILL POWER AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD EVERY DAY THAT I WAS THERE I MADE IT POSSIBLE.... THE OT WERE ALWAYS A WONDERFUL PART IN MY EVERYDAY ROUTINE... WITHOUT THEM I DON'T THINK I WOULD BE ABLE TO FUNCTION FOR MY SELF... SO I THANK THE OT'S OUT THERE!!!! I AM NOW HOME AND USE A QUAD CAN ,I WEAR A BRACE AND SLOWLY I AM COMING BACK TO LIVING.....
