A freak accident on a remote island off the coast of Nicaragua has left a B.C. father with significant spinal injuries and an uncertain future.
Anderson was swimming on April 16 when he was tossed by strong waves and hit his head on the ocean bottom, said his sister Tina Horwood of Victoria. The impact rendered Anderson unable to move his body. Anderson’s father, the late Dr. John Anderson, was a prominent local doctor and headed the B.C. and Canadian medical associations.“Bryan’s a fighter, very well loved and he’s the kind of guy who lived every moment, especially with his kids,” said Horwood.The family had travel insurance, but additional costs for the flight home and other expenses are mounting.
Soper called the Andersons an “incredible family who has been so generous to others and who never fails to help their friends and family when needed.”They spent weeks at a time in the tropical climate each winter because it helps Edward’s medical condition with his bones and joints.
