About Hi I'm amber and I am 41 years old. I got into a car accident at the age of 16 and was paralyzed from T5 down. I was told I would never walk again. I went from a wheelchair, walker, to a cane now. I have limited mobility. I have titanium rods in my back so it has limited my ability to move some. My right leg I wear a AFO to help with my foot drop. I have 2 boys that are ages 11 and 5, they keep me busy. I am on here to try to improve my mobility and to get in shape. It has been a struggle for me to do exercises since I don't really have any core muscles and with the rods in my back it has been difficult for me. I am ready to get in shape! Since turning 40 I have gained weight in my stomach area and would like to get rid of that and get my core stronger with my right leg and buttocks. I'm hoping this program will help we with this. Especially to find the right kind of exercises. I love anything outdoors but I have noticed over the years I can't do as much. I can't walk for very long or stand that long either. I have lots of back pain so I'm hoping this process will help me.
