Hooper displayed phenomenal courage, endurance, perseverance, faith and determination. It was a miracle that he recovered from paralysis. The accident had been quite fatal. Generally, people, who are rendered paralytic by brain injuries, have very bleak chances of coming to normalcy. However, Hooper was a very strong character. Not only he survived the brain injury, he worked very hard to be on his feet. Duke, his wonder dog was an angel sent from heaven for him. He motivated Hooper to start making efforts to revive his atrophying limbs. The daily difficult and challenging walks with Duke helped Hooper a lot.

It was all Hooper's courage that he overcame his adversity of paralysis.
