MIDDLETOWN, R.I. -- Heather Abbott of Newport, a Boston Marathon bombing survivor, went in for her regular physical therapy session on Friday morning, but brought with her the new prosthetic leg she had custom fitted during a 5-hour session on Thursday.
Wearing the temporary prosthetic leg, she and her physical therapist, Bert Reid, co-owner of Olympic Physical Therapy in Middletown, started work on retraining her body to move again.
