My brother  was in an accident where his car ran over himself. He has a fractured right hip, a fractured pelvis, broken ribs, broken collar bone, broken sternum, broken right shoulder, broken right arm, broken right cheek bones, and a broken right L1 vertebrae or they say shattered. They say he will never walk again. He has some feeling below the waist in his legs but no movement. He has no feeling in his groin or hip area. Can someone relate to him? tell me what is going on?

Hi Janism

welcome to you

sorry to hear of your brothers injuries, all the bones they can fix and heal but if he has damaged his spinal cord in the vertebrae break at L1 then thats what is leading to his prognosis, loss of movement and feeling to

how long ago was the injury and accident?
