    Seems like playing with a fused spine would be dangerous, but I don’t know much about this injury.

    Unfortunately yes. But at this point, we should just be grateful he can walk. Scary shit. I'm happy too see we've almost raised 20 grand. That's awesome

    That was my thinking too... just want him to be able to walk and run. Other stuff is gravy on gravy.

    Former NDSU player Tony Paul had something similar in like 1995 after a snowmobile accident , wore a halo etc, didn't play again.

    My dad had a cervical fusion from getting injured while playing tennis. 10 years since his lower legs are only 70% as good as they were before. Andy won't play any serious sports in his life, even his later part of life will have a lot of pain involved. If he is lucky in 20 years stem cell treatments might give him most of the function back.
