Dennis Prager Update From His Brother Dr. Kenneth Prager (Pulmonologist)

Posted on December 23, 2024 by Luke Ford

Ken Prager’s son Joshua, a journalist and author, had a similar C3-C4 spinal cord accident to Dennis’s accident. Joshua was 19, hurt in a car accident in Israel, and he was initially a quadriplegic. Now he’s just paralyzed on his left side.

Dennis and Kenneth’s father had a similar spinal cord injury that left him a paraplegic for the last two years of his life.

Ken said Dennis’s mind is fine, that Dennis is making progress, but right now Dennis can’t move his arms and legs. Dennis is able to move a toe. He has sensations in his arms. If you touch his arm, he can feel that.

Dennis can’t speak. At times, Dennis can breathe without a ventilator and without a cpap. Dennis may be able to speak in the next week.

Ken Prager flew into Los Angeles to see Dennis at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center the day after the accident.
