Lebanese Jessica Tawil is inspiring people online after sharing a moment many thought she might never experience again: standing and walking after 10 years of paralysis. 🇱🇧❤️ Jessica has been paralyzed from the waist down since 2015, following a spinal cord injury. After years of adapting to life in a wheelchair, she recently shared footage of herself taking steps with the help of a robotic exoskeleton called Eve. The experience has opened up new possibilities for Jessica, allowing her to stand upright and explore movement in a different way. She has also shared glimpses of how she incorporates the device into parts of her daily routine. Her story comes at a time when advances in robotics are creating new possibilities for people living with spinal cord injuries. In August 2026, Eve received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration, marking another development in the field of assistive technology. By sharing her experience, Jessica is giving people a glimpse into her life and showing how technology can create new opportunities for people living with paralysis. #livelovebeirut #Beirut #paralyzed
