I was thrown from a raft and hit a submerged rock (or tree or something). No surgery; I thought the risk of injury/death during recovery was preferable to a full cervical fusion and never being able to rotate my neck again. So I did three months in a cervical collar/halo instead.

Beer is like porn. You can buy it, but it's more fun to make your own.

First, I can't say I blame you on the fusion, Sean. It obviously looks like you made the right decision. But that's a scary sounding accident and injury. Awesome you bounced back as well as you have.

Mrs. R and I have done a few river trips back in the day, well way back. Which river got you? Any Rapids to avoid?
