When Danielle Drummond moved to Oregon to start anew, she never expected her life to take such a drastic turn. Shortly after arriving, she was helping a friend move a grand piano when tragedy struck. In a freak accident, the instrument fell on her, causing her to become paralyzed.
At just 28 years old, Danielle's future was forever changed. She had bent over to place something underneath the piano when her friend lost control and the heavy instrument came crashing down on her. In an interview with WOIO, she described the terrifying moment, "She dropped like a whole upright grand piano on me, and it severed my spinal cord. Now, I'm paralyzed from the waist down."
After the accident, Danielle underwent emergency surgery, but the damage was already done. Doctors informed her that she would never be able to walk again and would have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of her life. Despite this devastating news, Danielle is determined to stay positive. "I'm trying to keep my spirits high because I know this is my life now, but it's difficult," she shared.
As she adjusts to her new reality, Danielle's focus is on her recovery. She knows that she has a long road ahead and will need a lot of physical therapy to rebuild her strength. But she remains optimistic, knowing that she has the support of her friends and family. With their help, she is determined to overcome this obstacle and live a fulfilling life despite her paralysis.
