In December, a crowd welcomed him back to Evansville, and his parents had told 14 News they had been amazed by his progress.
“He’s worked hard,” his father said. “When he first got there – no movement in the right leg, no movement in the right arm, but now he’s able to use them, he can function with them, he can walk.”
