Yes. Dr. Krauthammer became paralyzed after a diving accident during his first year of medical school.
Charles Krauthammer is only paralyzed from the waist going down. This therefore means that Charles Krauthammer can be able to use his hands.
It is difficult to see with him wearing a suit, but it appears he's using auxillary & chest muscles to expand his lungs, as opposed to a contracting diaphragm. (COPD?)
He appears to be breathing with, what are called accessory muscles and not his diaphragm which is the primary muscle of inspiration.
