Destiny Porter of Parma was paralyzed in fall 2020 by a mysterious virus two weeks before her wedding to Craig Pawlus. The couple were married the following Valentine's Day.
Destiny returned to UH Parma Medical Center in December to thank her ICU nurses and the Acute Rehabilitation Center caregivers who took care of her after she was paralyzed.
The physical and occupational therapists in Acute Rehab were overwhelmed with emotion to see Destiny rise up from her wheelchair and walk again.
