I wonder what Jim Thorpe would have to say about all that . . .
(maybe something along the lines of a wish that the Idiot Deciders in cases like this go swimming in a gene pool that is full of sharks combined with tornadoes?)

This is ridiculous, She basically spends 7 days a week of intense physical therapy in a pool and she has been doing this for a few years at least. Her condition isn't likely to improve dramatically with more physical therapy.
