"Proving them wrong is exactly what you did. You proved them wrong three weeks later when you started breathing on your own. You proved them wrong when you excelled in physical, occupational and recreational therapy in rehab and started to regain sensation and some function below your waist. You proved them wrong when you learned how to transfer onto your four-wheeler and ride again. You proved them wrong when you became completely independent again, learned how to drive again, returned to school, learned to grocery shop on your own, cook and clean and even walk down the aisle on your big wedding day." .
