We have been talking about our limitations and frustrations for many years for some of us on this list.I only have shoulder shrugs as a C4 complete, but do know of other C4 completes that have more. So we use what we can and learn to make do and have shared many unusual fixes and adaptions over the years which have helped each other. This is one place we can whine and know that somebody out there has been in the same spot and can have some empathy for what we have and what we have lost.I have always wished for one arm and a somewhat working hand, and to heck with ever walking again because I never need to look for a chair to sit in. JEach of us wants different things, and each of us mourns about different things but we’re all united by our handicaps in some way. Thank goodness for each of our uniqueness.Good to see you on the list.Joan C4 1990 in smoky Reno Nevada due to the California fires
