Rehabilitation Program Helps Man Overcome Muscular Dystrophy

Learn how a rehabilitation program helps man overcome muscular dystrophy. Dakota’s muscular dystrophy had deteriorated to the point where he needed constant help at home and couldn’t perform the most routine activities without feeling exhausted. That all changed when Dakota turned to the Ability Rehabilitation team.
“I've been coming here for two years now,” says Dakota. “The biggest benefit is they've helped me learn how to walk again on my own and to be more independent at home.”
Dakota’s doctors gave him little hope of ever having a normal life. However, Dakota along with the therapists at Ability Rehabilitation refused to accept defeat. “The doctors said that I probably wouldn't be able to walk again,” says Dakota. “(Ability Rehabilitation) helped me get to the point where I could walk again on my own. It was a struggle for a long time, but they helped me get my independence back.”
Dakota’s disease had progressed to the point where he couldn’t get in the shower on his own. The simplest tasks such as getting food in the refrigerator made him exceedingly tired. “Sometimes it takes a toll on your body because I have muscular dystrophy,” says Dakota. “Just doing simple things makes you tired.”
Dakota praises the Ability Rehabilitation staff for their support and care throughout his health journey. “Everybody here is really nice. They act like you are family when you come here,” he says. “They make you feel like it's your home. The people at the front desk always say hi to you every time you come in, they know your name. Everyone who works here is rooting for you to get back to your normal life.”
“Before I needed everyone to help me at home,” says Dakota. “Now I can get in the shower by myself. I can get food and get into bed by myself. It makes me feel like I can do stuff on my own. I would totally recommend anyone come here to get help for an injury they had or who are just trying to get their strength back or anything like that.”
