Saanvi Gupta, a 28-year-old software engineer...
Saanvi Gupta, a 28-year-old software engineer and avid rock climber, suffered a traumatic fall during a climbing trip. She experienced immediate, severe pain in her neck and complete numbness in her arms and legs. Rushed to the ER, imaging revealed a severe cervical spine dislocation at C5-C6, compressing her spinal cord and causing quadriplegia. The spine surgeon explained that without urgent surgical reduction and fusion, the spinal cord damage would be permanent. Terrified and grieving the potential loss of her active life, Saanvi consented to surgery. The procedure involved realigning her vertebrae and stabilizing them with a plate and screws. Post-surgery, she began a grueling rehabilitation journey. While she regained significant function in her arms and torso over six months, some weakness in her hands and legs remained, requiring ongoing therapy. Emotionally, she moved from despair and anger to a determined acceptance, focusing on her progress and adapting her passions, like coding and outdoor photography, to her new reality.
