    I think every newly paralyzed person vows to walk again. Sadly, it never happens. Not to my knowledge.

    Some do, some don't.

    Hopefully, PW will be able to.

    Not giving up, and having the desire to push yourself gives you a foothold on the ladder to recovery.

    Good luck to him.

    How many of you would take being paralyzed to have his money? I know I wouldnt. I hope Paul Williams is able to walk again. If not, I hope he learns to cope!

    Paul's an inspiration. Best of luck to him tomorrow in the operating room and going forward.

    Better that he walks and never fights again than never walks at all.

    “[Doctors] told me there’s a very slight chance of walking, because the spine was, like, crushed, or whatever,” he told WXIA-TV. “I should be able to sit up on my own. But as far as me walking, and all that, it’s all on me. I’m going to be walking, I know that. That’s how I feel.”

    Keep your head up Paul..

    "We had a big fight -- supposed to be -- coming up," Williams said. "I'm sorry that it got pushed back. But that's all right. That's the way the cookie crumbles."

    Still thinkin about his fans till the end...:-(

    A very slight chance is better than none at all, I hope he can do it and it it is scientifically possible for him to walk again then he will, with the determination that he has.
