    Probably a stupid question; would they fuse the vertebrae together to avoid further damage or just leave it?

      Yes, the patient went straight to surgery to stabilize the neck. However, the damage was already done and he will remain paralyzed.

        Thank you! Yeah, I didn’t expect there was any way the damage could be reversed, but left in that state the guy looks one jolt or bump away from death.
