Narrative

When exiting the loader a gust of wind blew the door closed. While trying to catch the door from closing on him, EE slipped on the stair deck. In an attempt to stop his falling, he reached for a hand hold, straining his left shoulder and bicep. And irritated a nerve in his cervical spine (neck).
