Hello. I'd just like to point out that tetraplegia to this extent stemming from traumatic injury (specifically cervical spinal cord injury) is very unlikely to be permanent. While the two pictures are not consistent, Skyla does not appear to be wearing an orthosis brace of any kind; wearing this would indicate she is suffering what is known as an AIS A type injury on the Abbreviated Injury Scale, or in layman's terms, complete destruction of her spinal cord. Frankly those securement systems suggest limited mobility rather than a complete lack of mobility, as there aren't enough of them to suggest full paralysis nor are they in the correct position. Were she truly injured to such an extent, her chances of partial recovery would still be roughly 20-35%, fairly low but not impossible. Instead, she appears to be suffering from a much less severe injury; severe in the sense that it's causing paralysis but highly unlikely to be permanent. Recovery rates for AIS B-D type spinal injuries are actually fairly high, in the realm of 50-90%, with complete recovery (such as being ambulatory) entirely within the scope of possibility. While I do sympathize with Skyla's suffering, she also appears to be her typical age in these pictures which suggests to me she suffered this injury recently. So in other words her situation's not at all hopeless, if anything the odds favor her. Depending on the extent of injury and progress over time, I'd put the likelihood of her at least regaining control over her upper body (arms, hands, and so on) at about 90%, based on available data. But that's all very boring, my apologies for interrupting.
