Hi all, Ive been reading all of youre wonder why replies and heres my two cents worth. There has been a lot of talk about stem cell research and the possibility of a cure for the injured spinal cord on human beings. I want and pray for a cure just as much as the next person does (have followed all the newspaper reports, magazine articles, TV stories, legislator talks, etc. regarding cures and still will) but Im not going to let that become the reason for going on in my quad life. I havent heard much talk on living with your SCI and making the best of the hand one was dealt. Rather, a lot of discussions on maybes, some days, wishes, dreams, hopes, blaming Religion beliefs for non cures (hilarious), blaming whatever else one can, blame this, blame that, blah, blah, blah. Im getting real tired of it. Accept it and find a way to live on even though its not the life you chose. No one here wanted this, did we? No, so get on with it the best you can and if a cure happens, then all the better. There, Ive said it. I havent heard this side of the discussion from anyone yet. It needed to be said.
