Consent is the foundation of healthy sexual relationships, and it's crucial to understand its significance. Before engaging in any sexual activity, it's essential to ensure that both partners willingly agree to participate. Consent is about respecting personal boundaries and making sure you and your partner are on the same page. Remember the acronym FRIES to help you navigate consent.

On World Physical Therapy Day, we’d like to highlight the importance of physical therapy in our patient’s recovery process. Hunor Vajda, a 20-year-old from Romania, was living his dream as a data science student at the University of Florida when his life took an unexpected turn; he was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes, leading to severe weakness in his legs. What followed was a battle against acute flaccid mielitis, an uncommon neurological condition that affects the spinal cord’s gray matter area, that left him nearly paralyzed.

But Hunor's determination and the incredible support of his physical therapy team at Jackson North Medical Center turned the tide. Through Maxi Sky technology, a supportive system for regaining walking and balancing skills, and personalized therapy, Hunor made remarkable progress. Today, he stands tall, walks independently, and is eager to return to his studies and adventures in Gainesville this fall.

“To the Jackson North team: thank you for pushing me so hard, and for working with me so well,” said Hunor. “It was seeing their excitement whenever I made any progress that helped me get to where I’m at today.”
