Happiness in Progress

#27 Chris & Emily Norton, Defying the Odds after Paralysis


Listen Later

Chris Norton was living the dream. He was a college football player right out of high school. All that changed when he he mistimed a tackle. In a moment he could not move. He was paralyzed from the neck down.

You’ve likely seen Chris’ story recently as he’s gone viral and been featured with his new wife, Emily, on People Magazine, Good Morning Ameirca, CBS Sports, CNN and much more.

In the viral video - you see Chris, who was given a 3% chance of ever moving below the neck, walk down the aisle at his wedding.

About halfway through this interview you’ll also hear from his wife, Emily, who was integral in making that happened.

Watch the viral video - when Chris walks down the aisle with Emily
