While on a family vacation in Nags Head, NC in June of 2016, Riley went to cool off in the ocean…
As so many of us have done, he dove into a wave. But he hit his head on a sandbar!! It didn’t knock him out, but he said he saw bright light all around. He remained face down trying with all his might to put his hands or legs down. Nothing was happening.

Riley has continued to work hard at two therapy places. Each place offers him a little something different. He is working hard to regain upper strength and core muscles. Both are needed for him to learn to take care of his personal grooming and daily routines. He also wants to be stronger before he starts to drive again. Before COVID, he was working out 2days a week at each place! Now, he is back up to 3 workouts a week. He gives it 100% everyday. His attitude throughout this whole ordeal has been amazing. People tell him all the time how much of an inspiration he is to do many. Driving is his next big goal. A new vehicle will be needed as ours is a hand-me-down 2003. It has been good to us, but seen it’s better days. Please check out the pictures and videos to see Riley “doing work”!
