Syllabus

The trial court did not err by instructing the jury on the eggshell skull rule, nor was the jury's verdict against the manifest weight of the evidence, where appellee proved by a preponderance of the evidence that the proximate cause of the injuries he received to his right shoulder were sustained while in the course of, and arising out of, his employment with appellant rather than the result of natural deterioration. Therefore, because appellee was able to prove the injuries to his right shoulder were sustained while in the course of, and arising out of, his employment with appellant, the trial court did not err by confirming the jury's verdict finding appellee was entitled to participate in the benefits provided to him under the Ohio Workers' Compensation Act.
