Skydiving, Scuba, and Spine Surgery? Why Not?
Read Daniel's Updated Story in April 2010
Before my surgery in 2003 I was involved in scuba diving; within the year of my surgery I was back into diving and completed seven certifications. I have also been on two shipwreck dives off the coast of New Jersey.
I was also involved at the time with Civil Air Patrol and after my surgery I’ve been to New Jersey Wing Ground Search and Rescue, Hawk Mountain Ranger School and National Ground Search and Rescue Academy’s Disaster/Wilderness First Responder course. I eventually became staff at both Hawk Mountain and Disaster/Wilderness First Responder schools.
I have also been sky diving three times as well.

Currently I’m on my local volunteer fire department as an EMT-B and this summer I’ll be attending fire fighter school.
I’m also going to look into Commercial Diving School for underwater welding/burning, and dive medic specialist in the fall of 2009.
All the time doing these things, Dr. Lonner has been there encouraging me on to go and achieve all these things that I love doing. Thanks to Dr. Lonner and everyone at the office.
