Second Place
David Joles Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"Unsteady Steps"


7 of 10

  David Passinault, a physical therapist for the Performance Centers of St. Francis Hospital, encourages Steven Lugo to push himself during a therapy session in the Aquaciser, a device that utilizes water to help build muscle and stability so that the twins might realize their goal to walk across the stage at Hamilton High to receive their high school diploma. Steven and his twin brother Jose go for physical therapy twice weekly, but ironically by becoming stronger physically and then graduating from high school they will lose their insurance coverage for the physical therapy sessions.
