Hello,
My name is John and I'm 46 and live near the Adirondacks in New York. A tree had jumped out in front of my brand new Grizzly atv and unfortunately totalled it. Good news is I'm here to tell about it, but it also left my right arm completely useless. Tolerating the pain for these last four months has been challenging, but even worse is the depressive state it has left me in. After every test has been done, I'm again waiting for a consultation from a Doctor in Columbia University to see what surgical options are available. I would love any positive feedback from anyone.

Jacob from the Netherlands here. Just registered on this site. Fell off my motorcycle in may 2011 (can't remember what happened, probably caused by head trauma). C7, C8 and T1 are goners, C5 and C6 have been operated on so still waiting for final verdict. Having an awful lot of problems coping without my right arm. Kudos to the ones who did.

My names Raymond on August 19, 2012 a 84yo man in a mini van made a left turn with out yielding directly in front of my motorcycle (2012 Kawi ZX14R). I hit his passenger front fender. When I flew off the bike my body hit the side of the mini van.i suffered a severed blood vessel to my brain, 11 broken bones in my face, 4 broken ribs, a broken right femur, a broken left knee cap, and a brachial plexus injury to my right arm. I have no feeling in my right arm at all from the shoulder down. I have no feeling in my right collar bone and limited feeling from my right ear to my right shoulder. I can move my shoulder, but there is no movement in anything below the shoulder. I am thankful for being alive and know I have a long road to recovery.

Jeff from Oak Park, Illinois. I credit this network with getting me to the right doctors at the Mayo Clinic in time to actually make a difference in my life. Still a long way to go, but remaining hopeful...I'm down to Lyrica and Ibuprofen, which is a HUGE improvement from the pharmacy that I had been ingesting just a few months ago. Working with a local doc to try to wean myself off of Lyrica. Would almost rather have the constant "white noise" of pain than to keep putting these drugs into my body.
