“Ali is running! She’s going so much better than expected,” Messer, who is married to Jeremy Calvert,told Life & Style.

“We don’t now what the future holds, but this is proof that we should never give up hope.”

Leah said she was shocked when Ali -- whom she had with ex-husband Corey Simms – began running.

“She has so much determination. We’re in awe of how she handles adversity.”

Leah is taking the great news one day at a time though, facing the possibility that Ali may eventually still need a wheelchair.

But she believes there is a silver lining to Ali’s challenges.
