Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI
no external rotation against gravity, can only go to 90 degree fwd flexion, no hand-to-mouth
1 surgery at age 14 (latissimus dorsi transfer). In 2004, at age 28 I was struck with Transverse Myelitis which paralyzed me from the chest down. I recovered movement to my right leg, but need a KAFO to walk on my left leg. I became an RN in 2008.

Well, it was an injury at birth, so nothing too exciting, hence the "O"BPI...
I was born 3 months early, breech, got stuck, they pulled... I had a lattissimus dorsi tendon transfer at age 14 to gain active external rotation, which more or less worked.
I have another "rare" neuro disorder I got 3 yrs ago, not related to the LOBPI. Am now in my my 2nd (nearly 3rd) yr of nursing school...

Take care,
