A member asked:
How do you know if someone has any hope of recovering from a spinal injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Recovery: You do not have any way. Basically one has to heal from the process of the surgery and this may take up to 12 months or so. I feel is by 12 months its as good as its going to be.
