Is there much chance for someone who is paralysed from the chest down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Much potential: Life can be fufilling, even for those paralyzed. Depending on the needs and goals of the individual, most occupational, personal, and recreational goals can be met. A physiatrist (doctor of physical medicine and rehabilitation) that specializes in spinal cord injury can help connect you with the appropriate resources to help you set and achieve goals.
