Each year, they say, hunting accidents lead to spinal cord
injuries -- even death.
At Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation
Hospital in Grand Rapids, Mark Celeskey is making progress in his
recovery. He was paralyzed three weeks ago when he fell out of
his tree stand in Northern Michigan.
"I wouldn't wish this
upon anybody," says Celesky, who was not wearing a safety harness at
the time of his accident.
"Any other time, if I was in a
stand bow hunting, I would of had a harness on, but I was in a rifle
stand with rails all around," he says.
Celesky says, at the
time he thought he was safe. Instead, he fell 16 feet.
