A West Nile Virus story

West Nile Virus

Error

I contracted the West Nile virus in September of 2015. I entered the hospital on Setember 28, 2015. I didn't come home until December 5, 2015. I initially presented as a quadriplegic but have regained the use of my arms. I still cannot walk or bear weight on my legs. I am continuing physical and occupational therapy and hope to walk again. I have a new wheelchair and am learning to get around in my beautiful manual chair.
