AN ADULT IS AS FRAGILE AS GRASS, MILLIMETERS FROM DEATH

CHRISTOPHER REEVE-STILL ME

"I came away sobered by the comments of the chief radiologist. He showed me that the damage to my spinal cord was only one centimeter wide, and said that if I had landed with my head twisted only a fraction further to the left, I would have been killed instantly. If I had landed with my head slightly more to the right, I probably would have sustained a bruise and been up on my feet within a few weeks. I just happened to hit the rail at an angle that turned me into a C2 (Second Vertebra in the neck) air vent dependent quadriplegic. NOW I KNOW HOW FRAGILE OUR EXISTENCE IS." "The gap at C2 that prevents messages sent by the brain from being transmitted to the body was only 20 millimeters Iong,Ifyou were to put your little finger over the site of the injury you would be looking at a picture of a completely normal spinal cord. " The transmission of messages being sent from the brain to the body is referred to as the "FLOW OF LIFE." If a bone in the spine interrupts the flow of Life 21 millimeters/you are deadt 20 millimeters/you breathe &om a ventilator and none of your organs work properly', 1-20 millimeters, and you DON'T EVEN NOTICE IT, but you are very sick and must have that interference removed quickly. The problem is you and your children do not know unless you go to a Chiropractor. The story goes on to tell us that Mr. Reeves can only go to the bathroom if someone physically pushes on his intestines. He needs a variety of surgeries monthly on a variety of organs to keep him alive. In Christopher Reeves case, illness, severe organ malfunction and paralysis were swift. In the case of you and your children, the millimeters of pressure placed on your spinal cord by abnormal position of the spine and subluxation will cause paralysis and disease more slowly. But just as SURELY. Mr. Reeves in one interview stated, "People do not realize, if you injure your neck, you injure every organ in your entire body."
