Neck injuries?

With PK going down with a neck injury, and myself recovering from a pretty severe neck injury that ended my season and almost left me paralyzed, I was wondering if any fellow ns users have been afflicted as well?

Mine was the result of completely overshooting a jump at Mammoth while doing a flatspin 9, and landing tilted backwards

Had to get anterior fusion surgery on my c4 and c5 vertabre, reppin a shiny new titanium plate in my neck along with bone from a cadaver :)

anyone else got similar stories? im trying to find some positive stories during this shitty time i have before i thankfully can be back next season
