I feel good this morning. The numbness in my left arm/ fingers is starting to fade, and I've definitely gotten stronger. This morning the doctor did an assessment, and attributed it to a decrease in swelling around the spinal cord injury site(s), compensatory muscle fiber growth, and some other medical jargon I didn't understand

Keith - I broke C1, C5, C6, and C7. I've had two operations to fuse C5, 6 and 7 (if I understood the neurosurgeon correctly, and that is a big if ) My spinal cord injury rating (C4) is such that technically I am a quadriplegic, though obviously an incomplete one (asia D, hopefully E at some point soon). I hope to be at least hiking again sometime within the next year ...
