When BJ sent me this pic. Roman’s 8:18 came to mind.

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
 
Powdahound76 mentioned C5 complete cord in a different post. What does that mean?

Somewhat in layman's terms. Cervical vertebra #5 is the 5th vertebra in the neck, #1 being right at the base of the skull. The higher up the injury, the less function a spinal cord injury patient typically has, but every injury is different. My son had dislocation of C6-C7, the Dr.'s were surprised he still had wrist function at first, not typical with an injury in that area, and thankfully he developed some hand function during his recovery. C5 injury typically has no function from triceps, they often can't lift there arms above there head. I'll qualify this by saying this is just my experience, not medical, my son plays wheelchair rugby and I was around a lot of different quads for a while when I would help at games and practice.

Edit: Spinal cord injuries are classified as complete or incomplete. It's been a long time since my son was injured so I'm hazy on the difference but kind of remember it being a level of severity. Incomplete injury is more likely to have more recovery.

Dang!!!

Having had the honor to hang with Bo and his folks several times, it really warms my heart to see awesome stuff like this!!!

@Jscb1b - sorry I missed your question on the C5 injury.
Looks like you got a very good explanation.
I did. Then I used dr goole to learn more about complete and incomplete. Bo has one hell of a support system behind him. Is it dusty in here?
