"If Only I'd Known..." Dr. Burford's Whiplash Story:
When I was in my early 20s, I had a serious accident in freezing rain. My truck slid, fishtailed, and then rolled over when it hit dry pavement. The truck ended up on its roof.
When we stopped rocking, I asked my buddy if he was okay. We both agreed we were fine, so we got out and pushed the truck back onto its wheels. We were lucky to be alive and unhurt.
Nine months later, the pain started. First, it was low back pain, then numbness in my leg, and eventually, I began to fall. I went to my mother's chiropractor, who adjusted my spine for several months until I felt better.
He told me if I'd come in sooner, I would have had less pain and a faster recovery.
If I'd only known!
