In October 2003 while riding an ATV on a hunting trip with his brother and cousins, Jim Hardy, now 51, had an accident that would change his life and that of his family forever.

Prior to his accident Jim grew up playing soccer in the Pee Wee League through high school. As an adult he was active as a coach in a local intramural league and enjoyed running, hunting, fishing, hiking, camping and just being in the outdoors with his two sons, now 20 and 21..

Since his accident, Jim now lives with a spinal cord injury between his T10 & T11 vertebrae which means that he has no feeling below his waist. He spent 2 weeks in the hospital, followed by 3 months in Magee Rehab, after having spinal reconstruction surgery that resulted in him having rods and screws placed in the posterior and anterior of his spine. He then came home with a body shell (removable cast) for 3 months which was followed by another six weeks in rehab.
