Meet Ethan Glynn and Parker Durkin, brothers who love the game of football even after a life-altering tackle left Ethan, then a freshman, with a C4 spinal cord injury. In this episode of Spinal Cast, we hear about a journey of resilience, acceptance, and adaptation, as they navigate life after injury. Through candid conversation, they open up about unwavering family and friend support, the determination to push forward, and how that life-changing injury birthed the Just Be Gr8 Foundation, two years after Ethan’s injury. Focused on supporting those facing medical crises, advancing spinal cord injury research, and providing hope for others. Join us for an unforgettable story of strength, recovery, and the unstoppable bond of family.
