Need a heartwarming story to help get you through hump day? Allow Devon Gales to be your source of motivation.

Gales suffered a serious neck injury in a football game against the Georgia Bulldogs on September 26, 2015. The former Southern University Jaguars’ redshirt sophomore wide receiver was paralyzed from the waist down. But, he didn’t let that stop him walking again.

In May, Gales posted a video on his Instagram account of him taking several steps with the help of his medical staff. It was the first time he’s walked since his injury.
