I too am a quad since 2011 June I was at a party and starting to feel sick I fainted and broke my neck at C5/6 level. I am still with my husband he stayed with me we have twin sons 25-yrs old and we celebrated our 25-yr anniversary last summer. I can look after myself - I have incomplete injury so I still have full bladder and bowel control. It is nice knowing you both! xo

You popped up in my feed after watching Roll with Cole and Charisma. I'll be following you two as well. I admire the fact that you are sharing your story, the good and the bad. I know it is an encouragement for others who have had spinal injuries, but it also puts so many things in perspective in my own life. When I want to cry and whine about a Fibromyalgia flair up, or pain in my back from scoliosis or arthritis, I stop and realize that mine will pass in time. So it turns to gratitude ! God bless you and keep you both ! Hugs, love and prayers from a Kansas Grandma ❤️

I'm also a C5/C6 quadriplegic and like Connor lost my mom at a very young age. One life changing trauma after another is not easy to deal with. Connor is lucky to have such an amazing and supportive partner. As a 47 year old in a wheelchair for 14 years, I can tell you these traumas don't automatically resolve with time, unless they are gradually untangled with the help of a therapist. Sooner you do it the better. People who go through trauma at a young age, especially related to a close relationship end up being overly nice guys and I can see it in Conno's personality.

Most special thing about TIRR - it’s in Texas! ❤ You shared some embarrassing moments, so I’ll tell you one of mine (I hope it makes you laugh). The first time I was allowed outside rehab on my own (I could use my arms), I managed to run my chair off the edge of the sidewalk and get a wheel stuck between the concrete and the grass. Try as I might, I wasn’t strong enough to muscle the wheel up and out. I knew they’d come looking for me eventually, but it was starting to get cold, so I swallowed my pride, pulled out my cell phone and called the nurse’s station for help. They were a little confused at first because the call came in on an outside line. But they came out and rescued me.

You two are an adorable couple! Thanks for sharing your story. I know it will help others who may find themselves in a similar situation. I've always been so afraid of diving. I swim well but I can't dive and I always find it scary to see others doing it. I know this case was a freak accident and could have happened to anyone. Connor was obviously a very accomplished swimmer, so I know if diving can be dangerous even for him, it could definitely be dangerous for anyone. I always implore my husband not to dive into any pool because the risk is not worth it. He's a good swimmer too, but it's not about experience. Accidents can happen to anyone.

First of all, congratulations on getting married! That is a huge accomplishment in life!! I would like to tell you that you are most indeed… A multiple time miracle! You are such a strong person my good sir… You have overcome massive obstacles in your life since becoming paralyzed… God has been guiding you through your life and I was just curious, did you get paralyzed in 2020 or 2021? And to Lindsay, You guys seem like a perfect match for each other… I have come to learn that when somebody in a relationship gets paralyzed, it is a split them up, or it makes him stronger as a couple… And it’s clear to see to the world that it has brought you two stronger together! Which that in itself is a huge blessing from God! You seem to be a very strong young lady, and God will bless you so incredibly much for being there for each other and taking care of each other! Never doubt the power of God! In Christ we can do all things and overcome anything! My name is Wesley SALWAY, I went to Set Free men’s Christian discipleship ministry for recovery in ELMA, Washington 6 years ago in 2016. This is my story… Chapter 1 or 2 I got paralyzed from the chest down four years ago, and I’ve died four times since becoming paralyzed. I overdosed on heroin two times. The third time I died, was a suicide attempt, and I ended up taking 30 oxycodone’s and seven Dilaudid pills for a total of 150 mg of oxycodone and 28 mg of Dilaudid. (This was one of the five suicide attempts in 2018 alone) It took about 2 1/2 hours for my body to digest because it was such a large amount. I started blacking out and going in and out of consciousness… I got into the ambulance after my mom called 911 and less than five minutes after leaving my house in the ambulance, They had to pull over on the side of the road and park because my heart stopped. After giving me CPR, I came back to life and proceeded on to the hospital! The fourth time that I died was from a life-threatening infection called Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. My heart stopped for over two hours. God reached down from the heavens with his MIGHTY hand of healing and literally brought me back to life from the dead!! My name is Wesley, I am 37 years old and live in Seattle, and this is my testimony! God is real and is so incredibly good!! I hope my story inspires you to Believe in God as I am a multiple time miracle! God literally brought me back to life and He never left my side even in death, He was with me! Thank you God for life and thank you for me to reach people with my testimony. Lord I pray for peace and healing to all who read this! In Jesus name I pray, amen chapter 1 I was in the hospital with the same life-threatening infection that killed me on October 13, 2018. Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. I was there for 10 days of IV antibiotic treatment, and they put a pick line in my arms that goes straight to the heart just like you have experienced before. God has been with me my entire life especially through the hard times and occasionally even when I’ve been dead. June 7, 2022 will mark exactly 5 years of me being paralyzed from the chest down! I am self-proclaimed funniest cripple in the world! Lol. I am also as humble as I can possibly be, and I pray that the Lord continues to humble me. A good part of my life at the exact time of one of the hardest parts/times of my life that one could possibly imagine… There were times when I was getting high that I pray to God that he would remove drugs and take them from me out of my life… God guided me in such an unexpected way.. I tried overdosing on cocaine (In 2016, the year before I got paralyzed) and in the midst of everything I ended up calling an ambulance for myself in which when I got to the hospital the day after I got there one of the doctors asked me if I believed in God… I responded by saying yes, I do believe in God. He responded by asking me to wait 15 or 20 minutes so he could grab a piece of paper. So I agreed to wait and 15 minutes later he handed me a piece of paper that forever changed my life... It had a list of about five different places for recovery. The first place I called didn’t pick up, and the second place on the list was SET FREE!! Shane Tommila... and Vladimir Morgan... you were both one of the first people that I met there and one of the most influential and inspiring people that I’ve met there. I want to personally thank you for having the faith in me of an awesome brother who made me believe the realness of God on a daily basis. You have altered and changed my life more than once for the better and I want to thank both you and God for cheering me on and setting me on a better path! Only you and two other people know how I ended up coming to set free. From one set free brother to another, I love you bro and thank you for being you!

@@JourneywiththeFosters You are most definitely more than welcome… That’s what God wants me to do after all those times he brought me back to life… That was his purpose for me to share my story of what God has done in my life and to let everyone know that God is real and that God is really a miracle worker! I appreciate you guys as well! This might be a longshot, but do you guys have any single friends by chance? I am 5‘11“, I am 38, Caucasian with brown hair, brown and green hazel eyes, paralyzed from the chest down and wanting to share my life with someone special. I suppose I should mention that I am 57 inches tall in my wheelchair lol! Also, how is your day going so far if you don’t mind me asking? And thank you so much for commenting, I greatly appreciate it and both of you :-)

How long had you been dating when the accident occurred? You were talking about how you started dating in the fall of junior year and then Connor said that in June he jumped into the pool. Was it your first June together? You're a cute couple!

Did you ever thought of leaving him after his injury because this was so devastating and your really changed in split second as well? Are you guys able to have sex ? Do you contemplate how this all could be avoided like if there is another timeline where you never jumped and everything? Did you heard about case of boban Jankovic? His life changed in a split second due to his angry reaction, there is a video on youtube. Do you follow SCI researchers, did you hear about paralyzed mice who is able to walk again due to Dancing Molecules method etc? I wish there will be cure for SCI, but in a way that it will completely heal spinal cord and put it in pre injury state. I hope you will find peace and happiness
