Spinal Cord Injuries

The spinal cord is an essential part of the human body. It is responsible for sending messages from the brain to all parts of the body, and messages from the body to the brain. We’re able to perceive pain and move our limbs because of messages sent through the spinal cord. Without the full function of the spinal cord, those with spinal cord injuries are unable to feel or move the limbs related to the affected portions of the spine, which means they need an elevated level of care and assistance. When a spinal cord is injured due to an accident, like a car or motorcycle accident or a botched medical procedure, there is an extra level of pain and disappointment in adapting to the new injury and way of life.

For the injured person and their families, the aftercare that comes from a spinal cord injury can be expensive. The victim will need special treatment, care, and equipment that can be a financial burden to families.
