I know of a kid that injured himself severely in a trail bike crash. No helmet, broken back and other bones, plus fractured skull and serious brain injury.

It was very rough on the entire family for quite a while, but the kid is progressing VERY slowly and can now walk with little to no assistance, can talk, and can use both arms to some degree.

None of us know what tomorrow will bring us. The only way to live is to just keep on keepin' on with a positive outlook. If we dwell on the negative, we'd never get off the couch.
