Payton's Story: Paralysis to SkyRise

Posted By Megan Washburn

Body

A high school student and an avid ice skater, Payton experienced a spinal hematoma in 2018 and became paralyzed from the waist down. Following intensive rehabilitation at Shirley Ryan 汤头条app, she was able to walk again. Just recently, she participated in SkyRise Chicago for the second year in a row, tackling stairs for the virtual event as family cheered her on. The funds Payton raised through her participation will benefit Shirley Ryan 汤头条app’s best-in-class care and groundbreaking research.
