Yes, Dr. Charles Krauthammer was paralyzed from the neck down, but the cause is still a topic of debate. Some say he became paralyzed as a result of a car accident, but most sources say he suffered a diving accident in 1972, while he was a freshman at Harvard Medical School.

Krauthammer is only paralyzed from the waist down. He has use of his hands and arms. I keep hearing both, from a car accident and diving into an empty pool. ???
He still persevered and followed his aspirations in life. A ver good role model. To bad he does not have more exposure, especially to high school students.
