Re: [QUAD-L] sleep aids or meds.

[Fragile]

Taking Elavil, Lyrica, zanaflex for nerve pain.  No pain relief, but I do
sleep well because of them.  I'm sure if I ever quit I won't get any sleep.

[QUAD-L] Another cooldown idea

[Gah17582]

Getting older I don't cool down as fast.
 
I found taking after wetting my head I sit in front of a 16" fan or in  my
van turn the a/c on high, in a short while it does wonders.
 
I have taken my temperature after I overheat and found it to be 100+.

Re: [QUAD-L] Misty Mate Personal Cooler

[Gah17582]

Go to ACE hardware and buy a small electric sprayer $10. It is made to  
spray checmicals like Roundup, Weed B Gone, etc.  It will attach to the top  of 
a 1/2 gallon iced tea bottle.  It takes 2 batteries, but partially  freeze 
the bottle and you spray cold water all day. It does take much hand  
strength to push the switch.

[QUAD-L] FW: Constituent Response From Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison

From: Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison [mailto:sena...@hutchison.senate.gov] 
Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2011 10:58 AM

Subject: Constituent Response From Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison

Dear Friend:
 Thank you for contacting me regarding the fiscal year (FY) 2012 budget.  I 
welcome your thoughts and comments.
 
 A spending spree that accelerated during the last Congress has already 
driven up the national debt to the legal limit -- more than $14 trillion.  This 
unprecedented debt burden is hurting our fragile economic recovery, and poses a 
long-term threat to America's prosperity and security.  Our first priority must 
be to stop skyrocketing deficits, bring the federal budget under control, and 
move to a balanced budget.
 
 On February 14, 2011, the White House released President Barack Obama’s 
budget proposal for FY 2012.  Rather than moving toward fiscal responsibility, 
the President's proposal would have made things much worse.  With a $3.7 
trillion price tag, the President’s budget called for massive deficit spending 
that would lead to a $1.6 trillion deficit in FY 2011 and a $1.1 trillion 
deficit in FY 2012.
 
 The Democrat-controlled U.S. Senate has not offered a better solution.  
Senate rules require adoption of an annual budget resolution by April 15, to 
set priorities and spending caps.  For the second consecutive year, Senate 
Democrats have failed to put forward a budget resolution for consideration.  
This two-year failure has resulted in a budget free-for-all that has driven up 
deficits, frustrated attempts to set spending priorities, and threatened 
several times to force a federal government shut-down.
 
 A new low point of irresponsibility was reached on May 25, 2011, when the 
Senate majority voted to block debate and voting on amendments for three 
different Republican budget resolutions -- without putting forward a proposal 
of its own.  Senate Democrats then voted (unanimously) against the President's 
budget proposal.  According to the Senate Majority Leader, it would be 
"foolish" for Senate Democrats to support any budget resolution.
 
 The American people understand that Congress and the White House must work 
together to put the government's financial house in order.  To fail to act 
decisively will saddle our children and their children with trillions of 
dollars of federal debt, do long-lasting harm to our economy, force us to 
reduce or eliminate spending for important national priorities, and bankrupt 
Social Security and Medicare.
 I have cosponsored S.J. Res. 10, which would amend the U.S. Constitution 
to require a federal balanced budget, with annual federal spending capped at 18 
percent of our Gross Domestic Product.  However, I oppose the trillions of 
dollars in new taxes that the President and his supporters in Congress have 
proposed to pay for increased federal spending.  As we recover slowly from a 
long, painful economic recession, tax revenue has been increasing.  
Out-of-control deficits are due to government spending increasing at an even 
faster rate.
 
 We are at a critical time.  We must make bold cuts in spending where we 
can in FY 2012, while carefully prioritizing investment and research in areas 
of strategic national importance.  We also must reform Social Security, 
Medicare and Medicaid so that vital retirement and health benefits will be 
there for those who depend on them today and those who will need them in the 
future.
 
 In the coming weeks, Congress will face difficult decisions about short- 
and long-term spending priorities.  A crucial point will be reached later this 
year when the federal government's monthly $100 billion deficit brings it to 
the statutory $14.3 trillion limit on accumulated debt.  As we reach these 
critical decision-making points, please be assured that I will keep your 
thoughts and advice in mind.
 
 I appreciate hearing from you, and I hope that you will not hesitate to 
contact me on any issue that is important to you.
 
Sincerely,
Kay Bailey Hutchison

Re: [QUAD-L] Everyone please do me/us a favor

[wheelchair]

First of all, I wish you success with your cause.  2nd, as the  imaginary 
General Manager of  Hilton Embassy Suites Hospitality I have to  ask What 
size?  Should it be equipped with a Trapeze and auto-remote  operation. How 
much weight should it be able to hold? Should it be hospital  chrome or 
powder coated? Should the hospital bed be ordered to support other  adaptive 
devices, for breathing?  Should we order special mattresses for  each 
individual need?  Because a hospital bed is not required under ADA  Guidelines, 
it 
would be a courtesy or convenient item and should we charge extra  for the 
courtesy.  Consider that any air-type mattress could be subject to  puncture 
and require an occasional repair, for the next customer. Where would we  
store such a bed, in between uses and ensure that it is clean and sanitized for 
 
the next user.
Presently, there are several hospital beds on the commercial market  place. 
 They begin around 1500 dollars and go up to more then 6500  dollars.  Can 
you assure us that by purchasing such a special needs bed for  the general 
resident with disAbilities that we will not be sued for not having  the 
proper medical bed for a hotel guest.  The cost of outfitting each of  our 
properties with just one bed could cost millions.  How do we justify  such a 
cost 
for something that may not be used that often.  Your input is  wisely 
solicited. 
The imaginary General Manager

the world's population, or nearly one of every 7 people.
 
The numbers come from a joint effort by the World Health Organization and  
the World Bank. The last time anyone tried to figure out the prevalence of  
disabilities was back in the 1970s, when WHO figured it was about 10 
percent.  The current report suggests the 15 percent estimate will grow as the

For some, its easy. Rehab Program and doctor's referrals.  However,  for 
others, it is not always that easy.  Besides a good primary doctor, you  will 
also require a good Urologist and Rehab Medicine Doctor.  If you live  close 
to a major sci rehab center the task will be much easier.  Otherwise,  you 
should consider going to the SCI Association's website, for medical doctor  
referrals.  And that is just the beginning.

I think they saw us as wise investments.  True to form, we were. Who  do 
you think built those tall skyscrapers.. and were able to walk the line at  
100 stories.  The gaming casinos were not a bad idea either. Those  investment 
were slow to return big money but in the end it did.  (i used  allowed very 
carefully)

Re: [QUAD-L] burning sensation in bladder

[wheelchair]

The burning could be the results of infection, irritation or  chemicals.  
Most Urologist do not know who to work with SCI Quads.   And it takes time.  
I will forward a copy of this to my contacts with the  Nal SCI Assoc.

My 24 yr old son has been a quad almost 3 yrs. He got  a super pubic 
catheter about 6  months after he became a quad. He started  to get a horrible 
burning pain almost 24/7 around his bladder about 3 months  ago. He has had 
burning before but never this bad. They found he had bladder  stones, did laser 
surgery about a month ago and some came out. More  pieces have come out in 
urine since surgery. The urologist told him the  burning pain would never go 
away though. Has anyone had this and if so do you  still have the horrible 
pain?  How do you deal with it? He is beside himself and is ready to end his 
life -  please help.
 
Bless you,
