Martin's World


Posted September 13, 2007 | 02:24 PM (EST)

parenting, Breaking Living Now News


"By then I had pulled Martin into my lap. Martin had let go of his bowels, was
gurgling and losing consciousness. We were both completely soaked and covered
with blood, and I was sitting in a puddle of blood and body fluids. I quickly
realized I needed to stop screaming and crying because it would not make any
difference. . . ."


Welcome to Martin's world. This excerpt from a letter Donna Harnett sent out
in August about the latest emergency in the life of her 11-year-old son
concludes with a plea for our prayers, and that seems an appropriate place to
start, but the prayer I would suggest is not one of despair or desperation,
but gratitude: Thank you, Martin, for what you are giving us, for the
beautiful, triumphant struggle that is your life.

Martin's story as I have come to learn it is far bigger than mere tragedy, at
least the "isn't it a shame?" variety of tragedy that allows us to shake our
heads, shrug and, finally, look away. There's no reason to look away from
Martin, whose extraordinary array of medical conditions -- cerebral palsy,
micro-encephalitis, laryngomalacia (floppy windpipe), blindness -- stem from a
birth accident (his umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck) that resulted
in the loss of three-quarters of his brain. He's wheelchair-bound, cannot
speak or care for himself and requires 24-hour nursing (or parental) care and
a trachea tube in order to breathe.

But he also laughs, smiles, waves, has a great sense of humor, exudes love,
goes to school -- yes, goes to special-ed classes at the neighborhood school
across the street from his family's house in Chicago -- and is, so his mother
and stepfather insist, a powerful teacher. "We all have this feeling Martin's
really here at this point for a reason," said Donna. "He's here to teach us
some stuff. Things like compassion.

"At the beginning of the school year," she said, "I always offer to come in
and say a few words about Martin." What she says is simplicity itself, but
Martin's presence makes her words real: "We all come in different shapes and
sizes, but deep down inside we're all the same. Martin is a little boy. He's
more like you than different."

The kids get it. Martin's quietly compelling presence slows them down, brings
out a thoughtfulness and tolerance -- calls out, you might say, to their
higher natures. One little girl with a reading disability began exceeding
reading-proficiency expectations after Martin became her classmate. She began
learning to read, said Donna, so she could read to Martin.

Martin's vital connection to family and school could easily not exist at all.
He is able to go to school -- able, indeed, to live with his family, with
people who love him, where every day of his life he defies medical prognosis
-- only because Donna and her longtime companion, Jeff Dick, insist on it and
expend their energy not just caring for him but advocating tirelessly for his
right to live at home rather than in an institution.

"There's lots of state funding for warehousing people but very little invested
in at-home care," said Donna, her anger building. "The bottom line is that my
son has the right to live at home, by the sheer fact that he's a little boy.
My son has the right to live at home and die at home."

Advocating for Martin's rights, and beyond Martin for the rights of all the
disabled, has become not merely Donna's passion but the organizing principle
of her life. This mother of four -- Martin has three younger brothers --
somehow managed to go to law school, graduating last January. In the process,
she did an externship in school disability law.

"My basic philosophy is not to take no for an answer," she said of her ongoing
struggle to secure scraps of funding on Martin's behalf. "Taking no allows the
system to go on. If I get a yes, they've broken the rule, and we've made a
breakthrough. The system starts to change."

She adds, "This is a civil rights movement."

And her home state just happens to be one of the worst in the country in terms
of providing funding for at-home care, which is why members of the outspoken
disability-rights organization ADAPT converged on Chicago this week for five
days of "protest against Illinois systems that starve people with disabilities

The Miami Project is fine and dandy for the newly injured, since that's who 
they're focusing on, leaving us all behind.  The Spinal Cord Society is making 
a lot of progress with spinal cords have been injured for a long time.  Check

I saw that and was thrilled.  They chilled his body right after it happened 
to prevent swelling.  It's something really new that was tested in the Miami 
project.  I saw that hit and kringed and made me glad that mine was non 
traumatic.  I couldn't even imagine laying there awake and not being able to 
move.  It happened to me when I woke up from my coma but I was so out of it, I 
started barely moving my shoulders before I could comprehend what was going on. 
 Again, I'm really glad that he has the resources to be able to move.  I can't 
say that I'm not jealous, but its not his fault he has the talent to make the 
money for the resources.  Our community might have gotten a new advocate out of 
it.

Definitely!  Strong will just doesn't cut it when your spinal cord is damaged.  
THAT'S A BUNCH OF CRAP!  If it were true, I'd be breathing and moving on my 
own, have complete control over my body again, and have total sensation.  As 
I'm sure everyone else here would be.  Strong will is not a cure.

  Sounds like he might make a full recovery but I wish they would take this 
incident and use it to promote the fact that we still need a cure for sci!
   
On Tuesday, everything changed as she watched her son move his limbs and 
feel her touch when he was partially awakened from a sedated state.
  "Based on our experience, the fact he's moving so well, so early after such a 
catastrophic injury means he will walk again," said Dr. Barth Green, chairman 
of the department of neurological surgery at the University of Miami school of 
medicine. "It's totally spectacular, totally unexpected."
  Emotionally drained yet genuinely upbeat, Dugas let out a big laugh in 
discussing how difficult the last four days have been.
  "Happy," said Dugas, who joined her son at his bedside at Buffalo's Millard 
Fillmore Gates Hospital on Monday. "I'm extremely happy. I'm grateful."
  Everett sustained the injury Sunday after ducking his head while tackling the 
Denver Broncos' Domenik Hixon during the second-half kickoff of the Bills' 
season opener. He dropped face-first to the ground after his helmet hit Hixon 
high on the left shoulder and side of the helmet.
  "It's feasible, but it's not 100 percent predictable at this time ... he 
could lead a normal life," said Green, who added he has been consulting with 
doctors in Buffalo since Everett was injured.
  In a report Tuesday evening, Buffalo's WIVB-TV quoted Bills orthopedic 
surgeon Dr. Andrew Cappuccino as saying: "We may be witnessing a minor miracle."
  Dugas is certain.
  "We're going to take it slow getting him up on his feet, but we hope to see 
him walk out of here," she said. "He has a strong will and determination. I 
tell you, he's not going to settle for this. You're all going to see a miracle."
   
  I can't help but be jealous!
  I wish him well and truely hope he realizes how lucky he is and not cop the 
attitude that hard work will cure all!

I think the doctors are being generous and very optimistic.  And that is 
good too.  
  However, doctors like firemen, will say the fire is "Struck" but will stick 
around for
  awhile to see if their are any hotspots.
  I truly wish the best for Mr. Everett and hope for a complete recovery for 
him. I also hope that he
  is able to return to football and have a successful career.
   
  I'd wait 30 days before passing on too much hope.  Granted its going to be 
difficult, but not impossible.

Re: [QUAD-L] computer question....

Thanks to everyone who replied to my puter question. My new Dell is up and 
running smooth- I was able to recover my old hard drive with a USB hard drive 
enclosure. One thing I did learn- make sure you get all of your MS updates as 
soon as you connect to the internet with a new pc, I had to reinstall the os on 
the new Dell because I didn't load my 48 critical updates right away.

i included the file i use to back up -  copy the lines and paste them into your 
back up file... "do-my-bu.bat" (some mail systems won't pass a bat extention)  
the 1st backup run is painful since after that, only new files and updated 
files get coppied.
have fun,
dave.
 
the command line options on the xcopy are:
 
/E = Copies directories and subdirectories, including empty ones.
/D = /D:m-d-y Copies files changed on or after the specified date.
   If no date is given, copies only those files whose
   source time is newer than the destination time.
/C = Continues copying even if errors occur.
/F = Displays full source and destination file names while copying.
/H = Copies hidden and system files also.
/R = Overwrites read-only files.
/Y = Suppresses prompting to confirm you want to overwrite an
   existing destination file.
 /EXCLUDE:file1[+file2][+file3]...
   Specifies a list of files containing strings.  Each string
   should be in a separate line in the files.  When any of the
   strings match any part of the absolute path of the file to be
   copied, that file will be excluded from being copied.  For
   example, specifying a string like \obj\ or .obj will exclude
   all files underneath the directory obj or all files with the
   .obj extension respectively.
(a list of all switches can be seen by getting a command prompt.. Start - run - 
cmd - xcopy /?)
remember if your backup drive is running when a 'virus' hits, it may be 
corrupted as well.  keep it turned off most of the time.

Hi Dave,
 
I'd like to set my USB external hard drive to backup my lapetop everyday.  I 
use xp but don't really like the xp backup.  Any ideas would be nice.

i use the external usb connected hard drive for back ups.  it's unplugged most 
of the time and in operation only during back ups - oh yes and recovery once in 
a while.  i use a few xcopy commands on my xp machine and 'robocopy' commands 
on my VISTA (don't upgrade - it's crap.)  put the commands in a bat file on 
your bu drive and most importantly keep all important data on your active 
system in one directory...  like c:\cbu or c:\mine or c:\data.  you'll also 
want to grab favorites.  i can provide details to anyone interested.

You are so very welcome Dave. 
 
I've wore my hemp bracelets for at least six months straight (durability 
testing), showering with them on you name it. Some jewelry is delicate- it 
is amazing how durable the hemp bracelets are.
 
Thanks again Dave-

Hello people, 
Well it was about this time (10:30) 8 years ago when I decided to take a dip 
into shallow water and within a couple minutes I knew my life was in for a 
battle.
Some might say I lost the battle but as we all know we're still fighting it 
every day. 
I'm not going to dwell on this day I'm taking my son out for his birthday later 
and enjoy life and the fact that I'm still here with him!
On another note my anniversary falls on a dark day for my country and my heart 
goes out to the families of the TWC victims, no matter how bad we have it 
sometimes it could always be worse!
