They were a couple of great guy's Todd.
My name is Tim and I am coming up on my 21st anniversary in
August. I've had one wound- and that was in 2001; that about took me out, and a
collapsed lung do to an upper respiratory virus at the end of '08. I void my
bladder on my own, and have been treated for 3 UTI's in my years as a quad. I
feel pretty fortunate to have had the health that I have had; however, I use to
drink way too much and this 43 year old road-dog has seen better days. I am
now on more medicine than I ever have been, they are just for orthostatic
hypotension; but still, I hate to take anything. I live more of a healthy
lifestyle than I ever have.
Growing old bites (especially in the chair), but I just keep "RollinOn"!

I am new so did not have the chance to interact with these two gentlemen, and
curious if they passed as a result of complications due to their injuries? I
know the higher level quads have a significantly shorter lifespan but these
guys seem young to me still. I have been injured 20 years and very active, now
36 years old am am just now beginning to see and have problems that I never
experienced as a younger guy, such as skin breakdown. I am not looking forward
to getting old in this chair!!
My hope and belief is that they are in a better place now and free from the
chair and everything that went along with it.

It is so sad losing Dave and Mark this year from the list. I miss them both!
They were both great guys and contributed much caring to the list and other
people's lives on it.
I hope you are doing well.
Always,
