To anyone out there diagnosed with TM

Six months ago out of the blue I was struck with TM. From being totally
paralyzed to bearing weight on my
legs in 2 1/2 months and to walking with a walker with a long leg brace on
my left leg within 5
Months. Is there anyone out there that can give me an idea of how long I
should hold out hope
for my left leg to come around and get stronger. I have two very young
children and this is not how I intended
to grow old with them.

Sorry to sound so pathetic but my wonderful attitude is waning.

Thanks to anyone with hope and input.
