Taylor Price
On July 8th 2004, Taylor Price sustained a severe spinal cord injury to his C5 (Cervical 5) vertebra

What happened?
Taylor was severely injured after his neck hit a sandbar, while diving under an oncoming wave, in Westhampton Beach, NY. After being rescued by the lifeguards, Taylor was immediately taken by helicopter to Stonybrook University Hospital, where he underwent a 4 1/2 hour surgery. The surgery was successful but surgeons had to position a titanium plate in Taylor's neck to support his C5 vertebra. For the next 10 months, Taylor underwent extensive physical and occupational therapies in facilities throughout the east coast.

How is Taylor?
Taylor is in great spirits and is having a blast "living life" as a student at Georgetown University. So far, Taylor has regained limited strength and mobility in his arms, wrists and biceps but is still working on his triceps and fine motor skills.
