"Kevin Everett will walk out of the hospital." - latest on paralyzed Bills player
Advertisements [?]
Voluntary motion in arms and legs, dramatic improvement across the board.

His doctor says he's going to walk out of the hospital.

Good stuff.

For those who don't know, this was yesterday:

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - The Buffalo Bills' Kevin Everett sustained a "catastrophic" and life-threatening spinal-cord injury and his chances of regaining a full range of body motion are very small, an orthopedic surgeon said Monday.

"A best-case scenario is full recovery, but not likely," Dr. Andrew Cappuccino said, one day after performing a four-hour operation on the player. "I believe there will be some permanent neurological paralysis. ... A full neurological recovery was bleak, dismal."
