I think it sometime after 1993 as that was when I first got the Internet. One of my aides found the quadlist for me. I remember reading it but I didn't really post. I was really happy when she found this for me because it made me feel like there were a lot of other people in my same situation that I could relate to. I live in a large metropolitan area of Kansas City in a suburb in Kansas , but I don't really know hardly any quadriplegics. Shortly after I got out of the hospital at KU and was through my rehabilitation at Yonkers in Des Moines Iowa. We had monthly meetings at each other's houses but that didn't last very long and we did not really keep in contact. There's only one person that I still hear out through my mother, because his mother is good friends with one of my mother's friends and he is a great artist. He has a show every year in a park, but it is always on the day when my best friend, who is the main person that takes me out, is not off. One year my sister-in-law take me but we got there when it was over, so I never got to see any of his artwork. I don't really remember when I first started posting. Thank you so much Jim, for starting this wonderful list and for all the other participants, who make it what it is today. The wealth of information that everyone provides makes it a great place to be. Dana ( C-4-5, 33 years post, 54, Prairie Village Kansas which is a suburb of Kansas City)
