Hello,
Unfortunately, until now there is no cure for complete spinal cord injury.
Since he was operated and the stability of the spinal cord was achieved, rehabilitation in a specialized center is the only way of treatment.
This to adapt your cousin with the changes after the injury.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
