Courtney Wilkinson walking on my full hip disarticulation prosthetic… or better known as my Robo Leg! Amazing recovery of motorcycle enthusiast who was the victim of a hit and run in which I was drug underneath a truck for a mile and a half resulting in the amputation of my entire left leg at the hip, all but four inches of my right arm and severe burns covering my entire back and left leg. My passion was riding motorcycles and no matter how long it takes I will find a way to ride again. Four wheels move the body but two wheels move the soul. Recorded 09/12/2008

That finding is reported in the current issue of the Journal of Stoke and Cerebrovascular Diseases. Wyatt Decker, MD discusses the study and its findings.
