If you read this Mike, I hope it finds you well. Good luck with your
recovery.



Oh no! This is supremely unfortunate. The gist of that link is that
Mike was in a biking accident in Matsumoto Japan and appears to have a
T5 incomplete / T6 complete spinal cord injury (mid-chest and down
paralysis).

I have a friend who became a C5 quad in a skiing accident last year,
and it obviously presented a massive lifestyle change - but nothing is
insurmountable. The replies to that post are correct - Craig Hospital
in Englewood CO is the best of the best. It's a huge new challenge,
but I'm sure you'll master it, Mike. Looks like you found the right
people. We're all pulling for you too!
