After a couple days passed, I had to go back to see the doctor. She told me to come back in a week. Well, it is that week I was supposed to see her...soooo.

"Hey, mom," I said, "I was supposed to see the doc. again. So if you would, drive me to see her?"

"Sure. Do you want to go now?" she asked.

"I was kinda hoping to."

"OK, come on," mom grabbed the car keys, and off we went.

The ride was filled with an -awkward- silence. I guess we didn't know what to say, but mom finally 'broke the ice'. "You're really hopeful about this, huh Janae?"

"I've set my heart to trying. I need another chance, mom. And I don't know if I'll ever get that chance to walk. I'm tired of this wheelchair, and I'm tired of the harsh words everyone says to me. I really want to walk again, mom," I replied.

"If you have another chance, it was God. And if you're able to walk again, it was God that gave you a Miracle. So thank Him, even if you can never walk again. Some people can't even talk, can you imagine that?"

"I know I've gotten so caught up in this situation, and all... I just-" I was cut off by mom.

"We're here."

I got out without another word. Mom went in along with me.

"Um, hello. My daughter had another appointment..." mom said.

"Um, yes. Janae, come right this way," replied the man we saw last time. I didn't even have to wait, he led me to the lady right away.

"Janae!" she greeted me, "I was just thinking about your appointment. Debating on calling you, but here you are! Great seeing you."

"You too," I smiled, "so?"

"Oh, yes." she cleared her throat.

She checked my legs again, making sure if they were still hurt or fully healed. "Hmm," she said.

"What?" I asked.

She didn't reply until awhile.

"So, your legs have healed greatly, but I need to know how they feel? Janae, this is serious and I have got to know if they're sore, or anything."

"Well, when I woke up yesterday they felt kind of numb," I replied.

"That's because you slept on it..." she replied with a blank face, "Janae, I'm serious."

"Um, well...not recently. They feel fine, I guess."

"Good. Because I need you to try to stand," she replied in a serious tone.

"Wha-?" I cocked my head to the side, "you want me to st-stand?" I stuttered, dreading the thought of falling and hurting myself.

"Yes, Janae. I want you to stand." she said firmly.

"Oh -okay... Really?" I stalled.

"Janae, I'm not playing around."

"Okay. But are you sure I won't hurt myself? I mean, I've tried before, and all I did was get hurt."

"I'm positive. I'll be here the whole time to catch you if you fall, and I'll get you before you hit the ground."

"Al-right." I replied, with a shaky voice.

I used the arms of the wheelchair to get up. I was doing it! I was actually standing! "I'm doing it! I'm standing!" I exclaimed.

"I see! Janae, can you walk?"

I frowned, "Um, I don't think so.."

"Here, let me help you," she helped me keep my balance, and I took a step. And I didn't hit the ground this time!

I soon realized the nurse let go of me, I was walking on my own! But it wasn't long until I hit the ground again. An epic fail. My smile turned into a frown, and she helped me back in my wheelchair.

"Mrs. Turner!" she called for my mom.

My mom rushed into the room. "What's wrong?" she asked out of concern.

"No, nothing's wrong," the doc. assured her.

"I was standing, and walking, for a short period of time. It was shocking, my nerves weren't settled and I trembled to the ground, so painful. I-" I couldn't finish. I was too disappointed.

"Aw, Janae," mom frowned.

"She's free to go," said the doctor, "oh, and Janae, you should try to walk at home. But Mrs. Turner, you should keep an eye on her, she's determine."

Mom winked, "I'll be sure to."

She was right, I was determine. I was bound to walk again. Now that I've seen what I can do, there's no stopping me. There's like- 97% chance I can walk again. I let my nerves take over. It was so pressuring, but nice for awhile.
