Fun time at the pool!!!!
HI! My name is Heath and I had my diving accident 3 years ago. I fractured the C-2 vertebrae in my neck and bruised my brain in 3 places. I was in the hospital for 3 months, and one month of that time I was unconscious. During that month the Drs did everything they could but there was a week that was iffy, they weren’t sure if I was going to make it. As a result it effected the left side of my body. Even though I have gotten a little use back, the Dr. does not know if it is permanent or not. Up until about a year ago I had my mom staying with me to help out. Over the last year I have started to walk again with the use of a cane, by doing tons and tons of squats. And look forward to starting school in the Fall. So far everything the Drs have said I couldn’t do I’ve done. My word to everybody is to just try. You never know if you can do it, and you never know by doing something for yourself you maybe helping someone else.
