A video posted to Twitter on Wednesday shows Ryan Straschnitzki taking steps for the first time since the Humboldt Broncos bus crash.
Straschnitzki travelled to Thailand to receive a spinal surgery that he hoped would restore some of his movement after being paralyzed from the chest down in the April 2018 collision.
The video on Twitter shows Straschnitzki walking with the assistance of medical personnel and a walker-like apparatus. The post said therapists were helping with his knees and ankles so they wouldn’t buckle underneath him. His steps were slow and small, but there is movement in his legs that hasn’t been there in more than a year and a half.
