Wesley Palmer, Sr. tells his story of falling from a 12-story water tower and landing on his feet. The 120 foot fall caused serious spinal damage and Wesley was airlifted to Barnes-Jewish Hospital. Fast-forward 30 years, Wesley found himself reunited with Barnes-Jewish Hospital and a doctor he met while working in Southern California. Wesley is very grateful for the expert treatment he received at the Washington University and Barnes-Jewish Spine Center.
