He has no feeling from the neck down and so right now Rondel doesn’t actually know what is going on. He thinks he isn’t able to feel anything because of the pain meds.

Without the surgery they are saying that he will not be able to move at all and he will lose the chance to ever walk again and because of his nerve damage and not being able to feel anything from the neck down, his organs will stop functioning eventually and they are not sure if he will make it throughout the year without the surgery.”
