  • Rashide Serifi doesn't need to spend her life in a wheelchair due to functional movement therapy.
    Rashide Serifi, a woman who had taken their destiny into their own hands. After complications during labour caused her to become paraplegic, she didn’t want to resign to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair. With the help of the Ambulanticums in Herdecke, which sets new impulses in outpatient neurological therapy, she can make her first steps independently today.
    After using Erigo for early rehabilitation and Lokomat for gait training, Rashide is now benefiting from the Andago to improve her balance and mobility. She is safeguarded with the body-weight support system but has to stay in the upright position to control her speed and keep her balance. Andago offers a safe and multifunctional gait training environment, helping patients with physical therapy exercises to walk again.

    Excellent hard work. Congratulations on the abilities you have regained. To be fair to those with "complete" paraplegia, It's important to note that your paralysis is what's considered incomplete. If you take the transmission out of a car it will not go no matter how hard you push the accelerator pedal. There is usually a period of about 18 months after spinal cord injury where function or "return" is gained. You luckily regained some function and have obviously worked very hard to maximize what you have. I mention this because people see your success and judge those with complete injuries by the standards of someone whose injury is incomplete. Imagine rolling into a job interview and the immediate opinion is that you must be lazy or you wouldn't be in that chair? There is enough generalized stigma. Please be responsible and educate when you appear in media like this. Once again, keep up the hard work. You're doing very well!!!

      Dear singjeffsing,
      it is a very valid point that we have to educate - it is not so valid to refer to the 18-months-rule, though.
      Matter of fact, there are patients who are diagnosed complete who finally turn out to be not and can regain function even after years. This, of course does not and should not imply that "everybody can get back on to their feet". It needs a combination of several factors and hard work to walk again and we are glad we can be of support to those who have and take their chances. We do take our responsibility very serious and we are absolutely aware that there are patients who even with the strongest will have no chance to regain walking abilities.
      Kind regards
      Hocoma

      Thank you for saying this. The title alone makes it sound like she cured her disability by sheer force of will. It's insulting to those of us who weren't able to recover and get compared to these miracle cases. This isn't typical and shouldn't be presented as such. Personally, it took me a long time to accept my illness and make the best of it by embracing my new body. Saying that this woman "worked her way to independence" is hurtful. I'm a wife, a mother, and a business owner. The wheelchair doesn't mean that I'm refusing to be independent; it gives me the freedom to be independent by using this valuable tool to get around as well as an able bodied person.

      The level of injury matters a lot. I could be wrong but she looks like someone with an L level injury rather than T or C...In L cases recovery is very possible with some residual sensory and motor loss. Bowel and bladder issues can also persist. My level of injury is T4-T5 incomplete... I have regained some strength in my knees and can walk with AFOs and a walker but never recovered to normalcy. I use a wheelchair for the most part because doing chores with walker and AFOs might be unsafe as my right knee can buckle abruptly. I walk with AFOs and walker for therapeutic reasons...Getting used to the wheelchair was never my choice but a necessity.

      Not everyone with paraplegia is "cured." I've been injured almost 19 years and I am not walking . It depends on how severe the damage was to your spinal cord and nerves.
