A talented young nurse and dancer gunned down by a hit man hired by her husband. A new bride rolling out of bed through a sixth story window of their honeymoon suite. A young boy jumping off a building, attempting to end a "worthless" life, now quadriplegic, wants to live more than ever. Thousands injured in car accidents through no fault of their own. A young architect father playing with his children on their backyard trampiline, bounces on his head and is rendered completely quadriplegic. A teenage cashier held up by a robber and shot through the spinal cord. And, most sensitive to me....my fourteen year old son, thrown 100 feet from the back of a truck covered with a camper shell. His spine snapped, rendering him completely paralyzed at T10/11.| American Paralysis Association (APA) Paralyzed Veterens of America (PVA) National Institutes of Health (NIH) NCSCI NASA Miami Project National Spinal Cord Injury Association |
