That truly is amazing. When I was an intern at the VA hospital, a patient who had been paraplegic for 15 years fell over while he was in a standing frame. As he recovered from his concussion and broken wrist, he realized that he was starting to regain sensation. That patient ended up getting nearly 100% return.
I hope Ms. van der Vorst's next chapter in cycling can continue to be successful.
