C5 Spinal Cord Injury / Gallatin, Missouri
Chris’s life changed in a matter of seconds on June 8, 2015. An energetic college student who excelled in sports, Chris bought a new motorcycle in early June. Two days later as he was leaving work, he passed a couple of his fellow co-workers and as he was merging back into the lane, hit a patch of gravel. He lost control of his motorcycle, flipping it front to end several times, and was thrown hundreds of feet.
Against all odds, he kept the faith and continued to persevere along the road to recovery. Never one to be daunted by the odds, Chris continues to work hard every day towards his goal of walking again.
Getting Back Up is proud to support Chris with an exercise-based therapy scholarship to Project Walk Kansas City.
