A Barwis Methods Love Story

Although this story - albeit a different writeup - made it to the blog a while back, it is a very awsome story worth repeating and actually, I don't think what ended up here went into nearly the detail as the story out of the Des Moines Register. I read it and it was a fascinating, moving article - kudos to the Register for this. I actually learned quite a bit that wasn't in the initial thread.

Thanks for sharing it!

that the young man in this great story, Chris Norton, only started working with Barwis relatively well down the road to recovery. The story doesn't detail everything Norton did step-by-step to reach the point where he could walk 10 feet on stage to receive his diploma, but the bigger story is that he did it mostly because of his own determination. Now that he's working with Barwis, though, he's walking ten times as far (100 ft.). What the Barwis Method has done for Norton is to take the rehab to another level, which in itself is pretty amazing. I love stories like this and the Gandee brothers (who, BTW, are embarking on an even longer walk). So inspirational! When Norton and Emily Summers (his wonderful fiancee) marry, I'm hoping he's progressed well beyond his goal of walking down the aisle. Something tells me he will---the combination of his determination, her love and support, and the Barwis training add up to an unbeatable force.
