Amy Van Dyken-Rouen shows more progress, kicks (video)

Amy Van Dyken-Rouen kicked and briefly let go of a hand support while standing in her latest sign of progress in rehabilitation after severing her spine in a June 6, 2014, ATV accident.

The six-time Olympic swimming champion has said she was told by doctors she’d probably never walk again after her accident last year.
