I'm C4/5 Incomplete but some say I'm dead from the neck up; does that count?

Probably a touch of 'Old Timers'.... :mfrlol:

I know they told me in the ICU that Tom's injury was at T4, but his ASIA score puts him at T2. And he has a bit more sensation on one side than the other - I guess this is also pretty typical?

I'm a T10 complete injury but was told that based on my sensation level that I am more like a T8 injury.
