Gloria Estefan remembered learning how to walk again after being paralyzed following 1990 tour bus crash, which changed the course of her life forever.
"They always have to give you the worst case scenario, and I was paralyzed from that accident." "We put an elevator in our house, because one day, I felt I was going to need it … and thank God that I did, because I used it for a long time."

Estefan was warned she may never be able to walk again, but with doctors' help and her own determination, the "Conga" singer returned to the stage almost one year later. She's since been a vocal advocate for paralysis research, having donated more than $42 million to support research towards spinal cord injuries.
