My nameis Brandon And I have been gone for about 10 months maybe 11 the standard tour of duty. I am 31 RBPI 18 months ago. and I would like say hello and that I'll be around for awhile. No kidding though, I regained the ability to bend my elbow a week ago, totally out of the blue. I had all but given up. Anyways insha-allah.

Wow, Brandon that is great!! The elbow bending. What were the extent of your injury if you don't mind me asking. I am hoping my son will also be able to regain elbow flexion. The bicept is now a grade 2, so we keep hoping and working at it.

c-7-8 and T-1, unsure about 5 and 6 but I have hd no nerve transfers or anything. At first It was thought that all were avulsed. And up until 2 weeks ago My arm was totally flail. Now all kinds of things are happening. I have pictures of post accident about 3 months and now and there is an unbelievable change and it is without any physical therapy. It is just starting to comeback all on it own.

God bless you. Did you see a lil of the bicep shape coming back?

My left arm is insanely skinnier than my right and the shoulder is just bones. I hope the musculature comes back somewhat.
