Congratulations Don on your 30th year of survival in our SCI world. So you were injured during your senior year. That must've been really rough. I just celebrated my 38 th year on July 27, while in the hospital with a UTI. I plan to make up for it after my arm that was second-degree burned and my skin graft is finished healing on my heel, because the surgeon left the external fixater on too tight for seven days, without checking it. The foot surgery was for foot drop.. I'll find hopefully Monday if he thinks I need another skin graft. There is still an area that has not healed.
I always think it's fun to go to a concert or plan something fun to do near the time of my anniversary. What do others of you like to do. It's also a time to remember the wonderful quad friends we have lost that we will never forget and we miss them and their contributions to the list..

I've never really 'celebrated' or recognized the date each year--in fact, I had to ask my parents what day it happened. I'm just curious how some of you commemorate your accident date, or if you prefer to forget it. I'm remembering mine because it's also my 30th high school reunion. Don. C5-6 Tempe, AZ
