In this powerful episode of The Spinal Truth, Dr. Caleb Slater sits down with his wife, Danielle Slater — not as a fellow physical therapist, but as a patient. Danielle recounts the traumatic accident that left her with multiple spinal compression fractures after a 50-foot cliff jump in the Grand Canyon, and the devastating prognosis that followed: she was told she should never run again.

Together, they unpack her recovery journey — from pain, fear, and discouraging medical advice to running marathons years later — and explore how modern healthcare often limits patients by focusing on diagnoses rather than movement and healing. This honest conversation reveals the resilience of the human body, the pitfalls of quick medical judgments, and the importance of questioning "you'll never do that again."
