I wanted to create this blog to let help others and let you know you are not alone. At the same time, it’s for me, I need a place where I can just let it flow and writing will help me not live in my head. My name is Robert Vanemon, and I am from Williamsport Pennsylvania, I was born in May of 1978, but my life changed July 4th of 2016. I am a C5, C6 Incomplete T10 Complete quadriplegic. I was a passenger of a car the hit a wall at 90mph. I broke my neck at C5 and C6, severed my spine at T10. I broke all my ribs but 1, had to have plates put in to keep left side together. Had rods put in neck and in my back. Punctured both lungs and had to have chest tubes placed. Dislocated my right arm from shoulder and pulled elbow out of socket. Blood clot in left leg plus I had internal bleeding. I was only given a 5 percent chance of making it through my first surgery, so I feel very blessed to be able to share my journey.
Becoming a quad has changed my life in so many was, and I feel it has made me a much better person. At some point I shut down and gave up. I laid in bed for over two years, only seeing the sky on a stretcher heading to the ER. Now I am trying to get my life back.
They may call me RockStarRob, but I am far from a Rock Star, I just tried to live like one. Which is why I roll through life now. I started this blog so I can share whatever is on my mind, the up and the downs. Thanks for reading.
