hi, my friend recently sustained a complete C4 spinal injury. What can he do independently & what equipment is available to achieve this?

Hi Jade,

I see your friend is a c4, you also list c5 incomplete in your profile. I am a c5 incomplete and many of the issues we face are achievable; independence, sports, hobbies and employment. One website that helps me with ideas and supplies is listed below. It is owned by a friend of mine, Don Krebs, that I met in rehab in 1978. Don is a great guy and has lots of aids for independence.

Any other questions you might have on government funding, caregivers, daily care, skin care, etc., please ask and I will do my best to answer them.

My best to you and your friend, take care.

Jerry
