during the Indy 500 Speedway trials in 1968 Waldrep said the pair was invited to Southwest Medical Center for an examination by a team of doctors headed by Dr Fletcher McDowell of the Burke Rehabilitation Institute in New York "The Veterans Administration has been deluged by requests from Vets wondering why the same treatment we got in Russia was not available in the United States" said Waldrep "That's why the doctors tested our neurological makeup "However it was a very routine examination It didn't have any depth It wasn't what I expected at all" Waldrep underwent enzyme oxy gen and physical thrapy at the Polenovsky Neurological Institute in Leningrad late last year Ile is still confined to a wheelchair-as is I lurt-but says he has improved 25 per cent since the treatments "It was only a five hour examination and left out a lot of procedures I thought were standard" said Wal drep "I felt the examination was a disservice to the paralyzed vets who forced a committee to evaluate us" Waldrep and Hurt were joined by paralyzed jockey Ron Turcotte injured almost a year ago in a spill as they announced the formation of the Kent Waldrep International Spinal Cord Research Foundation at a press conference Waldrep said that while some $3 billion was being spent in Amehca on rehabilitation only some $3 million was being spent on research trying to find a cure for spinal
