Obviously you have never been around anyone who has suffered paralysis from a spinal cord injury. Instead of saying "who cares", you should thank God, *****, Buddah, or just fate, whatever your personal belief happens to be, that it was only the vertebrae and not the spinal cord itself that was injured.
As a paraplegic, I can attest to the life changing impact this has.
If his spine had been damaged, he potentially could have lost the use of both arms and legs, and like the proverbial iceburg, that is only what is visible to the casual observer and just the beginning of the problems to be overcome.
