Subject: Harvard 
AnnouncementHarvard University announced over the weekend that from 
now on undergraduate students from low-income families will pay no 
tuition.  In making the announcement, Harvard's president Lawrence H. Summers said, "When only 10 percent 
of the students in elite higher education come from families in the lower half 
of the income distribution, we are not doing enough.  We are not doing 
enough in bringing elite higher education to the lower half of the income 
distribution."If you know of a family earning less than $40,000 a year 
with an honorstudent graduating from high school soon, Harvard University 
wants to pay the tuition.  The prestigious university recently announced 
that from now on undergraduate students fr! om low-income families can go to 
Harvard for free...no tuition and no student loans.To find out more 
about Harvard offering free tuition for families makingless than $40,000 a 
year visit Harvard's financial aid website

  Hi Susan,
   
  Oh, your prayers will be heard.  There is no reason that a Quad 
  cannot live into their 70's and beyond.  Every case is different but 
  there would be no reason why a person couldn't have a SCI 
  and still live a healthy life as they get older.  
  Stay strong.

I pray with all my 
heart that life expectancy goes beyond the 70’s.  My dad had his 
accident a little over a year ago and he’s 69.  He’s c3 c4 partial but 
has a bad heart condition as well.  He has had some bad UTI’s that they 
treat in the hospital but he still lives at home.  He’s considering a 
quadruple bypass at this time.  And he has also ruined his shoulder in 
the process of his rehab and needs surgery for that as well.  It sounds 
so bad w! hen I write it, but he is seriously the strongest person I have 
ever met.  
I’ve appreciated 
the advice all of you have given for the different treatments you’ve 
undergone for UTI’s.  I’m very curious if the treatments they are doing 
for my father are overkill or better for his age?  We don’t have much 
to go on other that what he tells us and what I read on the internet :0 
  As anyone could understand, he can only intake so much 
information in so much time – it has only been a little over a 
year.
I would imagine 
most people – well maybe this is a bad assumption – over the age of 70 might 
not be on the computer – and that’s why there’s little response to the 
posting???

  I think the 
  Craig 
  Hospital site has 
  a figure site or do a google 
  search.
  
   
  
  But it's 
  really all in vain (the search) because one simply never knows.  
  Chris Reeve
  
  had the best 
  of care but he let himself be a guinea pig and it did him 
  in.
  
   
  
  Jilll Kinmont 
  was injured in ! the 50s and is nearly 70 yrs old.  She's been a 
  quad over 50 yrs and several vets do 
  too.
  
   
  
  75+ yrs AS A 
  QUAD will prolly be found for those kids injured around 5 yrs of 
  age.  And these will be
  
  future 
  pioneers.
  
   
  
  Everyone gets 
  a deck of cards in life and we deal with what were dealt ... how 
  poetic.  LOL
  
   
  
  People today 
  are OBSESSED with longevity and it's silly.  Aging gracefully is 
  cool but all
  
  this "holding 
  on for a few more yrs" in panic mode wastes QUALITY TIME of 
  living!
  
   
  
  I wonder why 
  you chose the figure 75???

  Hello 
  All,
  Quick 
  question…..Does anyone know the life expectancy of quads?  I know 
  it may vary.  However, I am just curious if there are many 75+ 
  year old quads out there.  
  Thanks,
