Show Notes
This week on the Live to Walk Again Podcast we had the pleasure of visiting with Zack Moore who is a Recovering Quadriplegic, Spinal Cord Injury Survivor, and a Disability Advocate. I got to chat with Zack about the diving accidents that caused his spinal cord injury, having the opportunity to go through the rehab process at Craig Hospital in Colorado, and the incredible amount of recovery he's had since his injury. We also discussed the incredible family and friends support group that he's had throughout the process, the steps he's taking to be able to drive independently, and raising money to help him purchase a van that he would be able to use.
