How I learned to play guitar again, after my spinal cord injury
- Daniel Overfield
On July 18, 2018 I suffered a spinal cord injury in my neck that impacted, along with everything generally, my ulnar nerve specifically. My hands still both feel very sore and pain still lurks between periods of calm. I am extremely fortunate, my prognosis is good, and I am grateful for the care and support I received from Metro. I returned to work at Cuyahoga Community College in October and my recovery is progressing nicely. As I got myself back into the swing of things at work and at home I was able to take advantage of a 3-D Printer that is available in my library at the Metro Campus. Playing guitar is one of the safer hobbies that I have but one result of my injury was that I could not securely hold a guitar pick for very long.
