Swiss Hockey Player Injured

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

Any word on that poor Swiss player who was paralysed 2 years ago? Did he experience any kind of recovery?

Hoping/Praying for him at Christmas time.

Anyway, if anyone knows any (good) news, please pass it on.

Assuming you mean Ronny Keller, the only news it seems is that he is permanently paraplegic.

Paraplegic or quadriplegic?

Paraplegic.

He is now president of Hockey Thurgau of the NLB (2nd highest Swiss league).

Wow. Good for him. Inspirational.

I sure wish, with all the advancement in medicine, they would find a cure for spinal injuries. I have never had the courage to read the book "11 Seconds" by Travis Roy (I worry it will be too sad) but it would sure be nice for kids like that to get their lives back.

Has anyone read the book?
