from the first week to now. i've gotten stronger. my knee doesn't hurt at all. and my posture is better. i also think my balance is a lot better. the tai cheng program is really well thought out. there's a reason for every move. the wonderful thing about dr. cheng -- i feel like i have a personal instructor that's standing right across from me. >> as you turn the foot in, this turns into a fist, and then you start sheathing a sword as you bring the feet together. >> the best things about tai cheng is it makes you feel better about yourself. now i can bo shelf, and i'm not worried about wobbling. i can walk my dog and not worry about his pulling me over. i can run around with my goddaughter. i feel so good about myself now that i'm gonna try something i haven't done in 20 years. i'm gonna go water-skiing again. this is my time to shine, to really do the things i've always wanted to do. i think i will be doing tai cheng for the rest of my life. >> wow!

julie, how do you feel? >> i feel wonderful. >> yeah? >> and so much more active since tai cheng and i'm flexible and i've got my youthful figure back. >> so, what was your favorite part of the program? >> well, i really liked the fact that i could do it, you know. and then as i was in the program, i noticed that i was improving as i went along. and i guess maybe the best is that i got my confidence back. >> oh, confidence is important. >> it sure is. >> and that's a big part of the program, regis. as you get older, we all lose our confidence. fall. we lose our balance. we're not steady on our feet. this is a huge problem. 1 in 3 adults over the age of 65 falls every year. half of all adults over 80 -- that's half -- a huge number -- fall. and once you fall, we know that you're 2 to 3 times more likely to fall again. and here's the worst part -- 95% of all hip fractures are caused by falls. this is such a great program. tai chi is recommended by the

older people. so, tai cheng simplifies it for you so you can do tai chi in your home, just like julie did, and get those kinds of results. >> julie, thanks so much for coming to our show. you look wonderful. >> i feel great.

from work, when someone hit him with their car and left the scene. he had to be airlifted to the hospital 45 minutes away where he was admitted to the icu for internal bleeding and a broken pelvis and back. my parents were driving from wisconsin to florida where they had rented a condo. they were in nashville when i made the dreaded call. they immediately turned around and drove straight to our house in minnesota to help out with our two kids, griffin and alis. brian was in the icu for six weeks undergoing multiple surger p the road to recovery was very uncertain. with the hospital so far away, i couldn't commute back and forth either day. my parents stayed the entire time so i could be with brian 24/7. they took the kids to school, to all their extracurricular activities. they helped them with their homework and comforted them when needed. griffin said it best, meme and papa took us to school a little late the first day back. after that day, it felt pretty normal. as the weeks went on, my mom kept reassuring me, you need to
