“Two years ago on December 16th, I had the first part of my DBS surgery. My life was forever changed! I felt like there was hope for a stronger, taller future.”
Living with dystonia, Courtney Lockhart Bolding felt her body wasn’t always on her team. After receiving deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery two years ago at the Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases, Courtney has found peace with her body.
“I’m so “normal” and not constantly fighting myself in pain, even did my first 5k this year! It’s amazing how time flies when life is so good! This year was even better than last.
Thank you for getting my brain on board with the rest of me!”
