Albert was revived at the scene of the crash. He barely survived his car accident. He wasn’t expected to move or breathe on his own again. Nearly given up on, Albert found hope after meeting Ranken Jordan physician, Dr. Nick Holekamp. Albert’s fate drastically changed that day. One of our physiatrists discovered that Albert’s spinal cord injury was incomplete. Now, instead of spending his life in a bed at a nursing home he’s in therapy and launching his career as a motivational speaker.

KT Tape: Rib
Rib Pain The ribs are the individual bones that form the rib cage. The rib cage serves to protect the vital organs such as the lungs and the heart. The rib cage spans from the neck to near the hips and is made of hard bone tissue for protection, but pieced together by flexible cartilage to allow for expansion of the lungs for breathing. Muscles in between each rib hold the bones together, maintain proper spacing, and facilitate the expansion for breathing. Humans have 12 pairs of ribs: 14 true ribs that surround the body, 6 false ribs that partially surround the body starting from the sternum, and 4 false ribs that originate at the spine and do not surround the body at all. Ribs can become bruised, broken, separated, and the muscles can be pulled or torn. Excessive strain in twisting motions, abrupt direction changes, or a blunt force can all cause muscle pain of the ribs, while blunt or sharp forces are almost always the cause of breaks or bruising. Rib pain is often felt at or around the ribs and can radiate into the back or abdominals. The pain can range from sore or annoying on inspiration to extremely painful and disruptive of normal breathing. Use KT Tape to relieve pressure and pain, increase circulation to promote the healing process, and relax any strained muscles. Due to the properties of KT Tape, the ribs remain flexible enough to allow for breathing, but excess motion is alleviated and increased circulation is encouraged. This flexible support provides a very …

Skydiver Survives Mid-Air Collision And Impact With Ground
At 2500 feet, my jump partner flairs his canopy causing it slow down rapidly. I entangle with it and he cuts away. Unable to fly a ball of nylon effectively, I impact a cornfield breaking my pelvis, back and neck causing instant paralysis. As I lay waiting for help, spinal shock begins to set in paralyzing my diaphragm and breathing on my own becomes impossible. Rescue breathing is performed as I lose consciousness. Paramedics arrive and I’m med-flighted to UW Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin where I awake days later after surgery and begin life as a quadriplegic. It’s taken me four and a half years to be able to watch this video. Stupid Hurts Edit: I did deploy my reseve; it’s the blue ball of nylon tangled in my lines. Edit #2: The creepy frames at 3:31 were caused when the write head on my DV camcorder skipped from the impact preserving the previous recording that I was taping over. The image is of the ex-gf and myself in the basement of our old house. It is not a sex tape; guys do not tape over sex tapes.
