He might be so injured that they figure that surgery is pointless, and actually it's not like they've explicitly stated that he's not having surgery.

I’ll stick to my line of thinking until I see something that changes my mind.

Dude, these reports always try to portray the situation as positively as possible without outright lying. If he had any movement in extremities, they'd have said so.
With the latest tweet, they're basically trying to act like "preliminary evaluations are positive" because he's apparently breathing. Since what counts as "positive" is somewhat subjective, they (at least in their own mind) aren't lying when they claim that evaluations are positive, even though he's actually paralyzed.

Are you serious?, Why post this?

You're making quite a leap assuming permanent paralysis from a brief statement that includes the word "positive".
The lack of detail probably has more to do with HIPPA and team policy than it does obscuring a paralysis diagnosis. I'm not even sure they can make those calls this early absent catastrophic injury that leaves no doubt in the X-rays. But you're right that no word on movement yet is a worrying sign.

Local 25 year old cop here in Alabama was killed in a motorcycle accident last Monday, October 26th.
He closed on his first house on October 1st and got married on October 10th.
Life can be brutal.

Could this be a "wait until the swelling goes down" situation.?

Pray for him and his family.

Wonder if maybe his family requested that the update include “positive” because they’re trying to maintain a hopeful, optimistic mindset still themselves and for him. I just want this young man, and husband, and father to be able to live a normal life. Going to keep praying and keep the faith.

Here's a Utube presentation from a doctor who has dealt with other neck and spinal cord injuries. He talks about the different nerve bundle that are in the spinal cord and what they do and how injuries affect them.
