Toby D Carr and Zachary Phillips

At 26 years old Toby Carr underwent spinal surgery to address a large disc extrusion at C6/C7 (the base of the neck).

“The worst case scenario is you’ll never walk again … and you’ll have limited use of your arms and hands.”

In this episode, we discuss the events leading up to the surgery, his mental state throughout, and his post surgery recovery process.
