Update on Flying Through the Air With Out the Greatest of Ease

At an airport on the way to a return flight from a visit to Captiva Island, my husband was thrown out of the wheelchair he was traveling in from an earlier injury, landing on the concrete in front of a bus. A previous post explained what happened in detail but here is an update for those who may wonder.

The previously painful wrist is out of the cast/Velcro enclosure and recovering beautifully. The disk in the back, however, isn't doing quite as well. A recent visit to a spine center indicated a possible herniated disk on the right side of the spine, above the spinal fusion of a few years back. Ouch. Time will tell if intervention is necessary to correct this problem or if it will resolve itself. Keep your fingers crossed.
