"I start to let my foot off the gas and discovered my feet wouldn't work. I finally had to pull my foot off the gas with my hands." . Thompson was hospitalized at Boulder City with two crushed vertebrae. The back injury paral vzed him from the waist down. He was told he should spend at least three months in a plaster cast. Seven days later he left the hospital. Didn't Like Bed "I didn't like laying in bed," he said. "I wanted to get home. Once here. Thompson started exercising in bed.
