Morse, Jeffrey: - Jeffrey Morse had traveled the world, visited exotic locations, been a sports diver, and had successful careers in both the military and commercial aviation when one day, an emergency room doctor told him he had both a brain aneurism and a dissected artery. Surgery was the only option. His chances of survival were less than 25 percent. During surgery, Jeffrey suffered a spinal cord stroke that left him paralyzed. At the age of forty-nine, Jeffrey was told he would likely never walk again. He made a vow that he would walk out of the hospital anyway. Six weeks later, he did just that. Jeffrey's journey has led him to alternative therapies, a healthy lifestyle, and a proactive versus reactive approach to his recovery. From that hospital bed after a devastating surgery, Jeffrey has traveled to the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, and to the beautiful country of Nepal, where he paraglided off the top of a mountain and fed a vulture in flight. Jeffrey's journey has led him to embark upon a new career as an author and motivational speaker. He believes you can overcome any obstacle by taking control of your recovery. Don't let "I can't" rule your vocabulary. There are always other options, and you can start a new road and a new life.
