However, David seems to be gifted with a tough will power, as he is not ready to give up hope.

“Although David has been told he”ll never walk again he is still not giving up hope. Deep down he knows it’’s unlikely but it’’s still early days and so he’’s not giving up completely, the source added. (ANI)
