depends. there are two types of injury to a spinal cord. complete, and incomplete. a complete injury: where the spinal cord has been severed, even a partial sever is considered complete. where a vertebrae has been crushed and bone fragments have cut into the cord: is also considered complete. prognosis will never walk again unless Jesus intervenes incomplete injury: the spinal cord is left intact, it has not been cut or severed. the damage is the spinal cord has been crushed, squeezed, and or stretched, which damages the nerves inside your cord. prognosis: might walk again of the two injuries this is the better injury. it's possible that removing the bullet might relieve the pressure on your cord and you would regain your motor skills and bodily functions. then it's also possible for there to be no change. my knowledge on this is from first hand experience: I'm a t-7 para, my injury was a complete injury. t-7 was crushed and a piece of my right hip bone is fused in it's place. but I'm trusting Jesus to heal me
