Hope so too!
If the vet had her way he'd be pushing up daisies by now as "the chances of nerves healing themselves are very small" 
Unbelievable...

If the spinal cord itself is damaged then I'm afraid he is right: it doesn't heal well at all.
But...if it's squashed rather than crushed it can recover.
There is a UK Channel 4 series called "Supervet" where he has fixed a couple of dogs and cats with crushed or exploded vertebra and saved the spinal cord. It's probably not available outside the UK (Channel 4 is funny like that) and obviously a Google search won't find it, so don't even bother looking on YouTube[^] as everything there is probably technically pirated anyway.
It's worth a watch if you can get it where you are.

I once saw a TV show with a vet chiropractor working on a horse. The poor animal was standing lopsided and couldn't walk without wincing in pain. The vet (and a helper) did a lift here and a twist there with sometimes audible results. After 15 minutes of therapy the horse was standing proud and galloping in joy.
Amazing.
