I am 42 years old and a C5/6 complete quadriplegic due to a car accident in a wind storm. In December of 2000, the top part of a tree broke off and fell on our minivan while we were driving about 35 or 40 miles an hour on a back road. Wrong place at the wrong time. My husband and I both broke our necks and had surgery to get them fused. There was more damage to my side of the van, which left me a quadriplegic. My husband fortunately did not have any permanent damage. I have movement of my arms, but no finger movement. We are in the midst of training our three-month old AKC yellow lab, which we got when she was seven weeks old. My husband is doing a great job with her. She was the youngest and most mellowest of the whole litter and should be around 60 pounds or so full-grown. Everyone that knows Labs says that she is not a lab because she is so mellow. She is potty trained and sleeps in a kennel during the night. Has anyone out there trained their dogs to do things for them? I still need to find a way to be able to give her treats. Any suggestions? Nice to Be on Board -- :-) Maria On Sun, Mar 9, 2008 at 7:41 AM, Raúl Rebollo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Maria. You can post and can write us about your injury, accident.
