Best wishes to him. Nice for us to get such a good explanation. I never knew what the whole story was.

If ever there was a lucky injury, his concussion was it. That AVM would be a killer, bleeding which would be uncontrollable because the source of the bleed can't be easily clamped (the brain is an unforgiving organ for any trauma, like clamping or pushing; and the AVM seems to have no beginning or end so the starting vessel is hard to find; and the brain's response to injury is to swell but is limited by the bony house it's encased in). Good luck to him and a hopeful bright future.

Without regard to what he may or may not be able to do in his already-amazing athletic pursuits (and I hope it’s a whole lot), in the larger game of life he is unquestionably a “can’t miss” prospect.

Tons of admiration for such an indomitable spirit and (woolly) mammoth heart.
