Re: Pro Mod accident at INDY
A year and a half ago my adult son was in a motor vehicle accident. He initially thought he was not hurt and went home. He rolled his pickup truck near his home. The next day he went to the ER with pain in his neck and numbness in his left arm and hand. He had fractured vertabrae at C-5 and C-6. He was immediately immobilized and awaited surgery for a few days, He had NO spinal cord damage. He was given steroids while he awaited the surgery to repair the fractures.....Bottom line is he recovered fully and was sent home within a few days. He wore a neck brace for a few weeks but recovered fully and has only minor issues from his injury.......I hope Mr Engel has the same results and the neurosurgeons today do these types of miracles every day. The fact that they said he has no spinal cord damage is a huge plus.....I hope he fully recovers with time.......
