Not sure how I missed this thread - subscribed. I gave up motorcycles back in 86 when I was in and out of Walter Reed and Bethsda Naval Hospital after being paralyzed on one side from the chest down due to a disc imploding against the spinal column.
Sounds nasty. I hope you're doing much better now. Thank you for your service by the way.
I feel very blessed to still be able to work on stuff. I didn't get full use of my left shoulder, but that's my own fault for not continuing my exercises after I was released from therapy. The only time I notice any issues is when I attempt to get something heavy off a shelf way above my head or when I attempt to do an oil change and reach for the drain plug, but can't quite reach it.
