Man goes down on one knee to propose after being told he may never walk again

Brandon Devonshire (25) from Rome, Pennsylvania was told me may never walk again. Defying all odds, he walked across a room and got down on one knee to propose to his partner, Crickett LeVance (25).

In July of 2020, Devonshire suffered a terrible accident when he was crushed by a tree he had been cutting down, which ruptured his vertabrae and caused damage to his spinal cord.

His spine is now stabilised by two rods and eight screws, but he was left paralysed. Months after the accident, he began to regain movement and has been working with physiotherapists.

Throughout it all, girlfriend Crickett has been by his side supporting him. To thank her and show his love, he decided to propose.

Devonshire popped the question on August 11, 2020 in the personal training gym at a hospital. He walked across the room using a walking frame, and medical staff were on hand to help him kneel on a padded cushion and rest his upper body against a chair so that he could comfortably propose.

An unsuspecting Crickett enters the room and is shocked to see her partner kneeling with a ring box.
