Patient testimonial: David S.

I had been working as a journeyman carpenter when, on October 27, 2005, a 926-pound load crushed me.  After having eighteen procedures and numerous surgeries, I gave up.  I was released from the hospital and spent two years on pain killers, lying in bed or in a recliner.  I had been fitted with headgear and Cavalier bracing around my neck and torso.  I was confined in the home, as there was no hope of me driving.  However, ten weeks at UBC and I have changed my attitude and outlook on life.  New hope and big strides.  By the grace of UBC, I was able to get in this truck and drive!
