Lokomat, The Walking Machine

Scott Crawford wants to walk again. In September, a pile of wooden pallets fell on Crawford. The accident left him unable to move because of a spinal cord injury. Crawford, 51, went from driving a tractor trailer to negotiating a wheel chair.
Twice a week Crawford goes to Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Hospital for physical therapy. He straps into a robot, called the Lokomat, that guides his legs and helps him walk. Crawford hopes the machine will teach him how to walk on his own again. Photos by David Perry | Staff; Audio by Sarah Vos | Staff
