When veteran Matt Ross (Ret. Army) suffered a devastating spinal injury while working on his farm, doctors said he was lucky to be alive. They also said he’d never walk again. But, with his daughter getting married the next year, Matt had different plans: He was going walking his daughter down the aisle. And, thanks to SoldierStrong and Matt’s unflinching drive, that plan became a reality.
“If that Ekso hadn’t of pushed me forward…I probably wouldn’t be at the point I’m at now. I don’t think that I would have progressed that fast.
You get all your freedom back again. Instead of being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of your life … You can stand up. You can walk. You can do the things that you used to be able to do.
After my accident, the first time I stood up … the rush you got, the feeling you got, there’s just no explanation for it.”
