Re: [QUAD-L] Quick poem
I thinking it's because, being paralyzed from the neck down and dependent on a ventilator to breathe, I always have someone around me to feed me, brush my teeth, wash my cloths, etc. Just been fortunate my bowel routine. I don't own a van so use a service anytime I have gone anywhere. Chair broke down at home but got transferred back to bed.

Re: [QUAD-L] Quick poem
I personally would hate to see you leave because of a single post. Life varies among Quads. Some work 8 hours a day and others lay in bed for 8 hours a day. And then there are so many in between those extremes. Michelle, I wish we knew more about YOU and what YOU are doing. I hope you will reconsider as this group changes several times during the year.

Re: [QUAD-L] Quick poem
There is much positive here and if you read through the poem the end leaves
hope. Ive done some amazing things as a quad, but right now Ive hit a buzzsaw.
Nothing is all positive nor negative. The poem is how I felt at that moment. If
you have no negative expressed than you have a bias list. I was thinking of
making a follow up poem when things get better. Stick around girl!

Re: [QUAD-L] Quick poem
The 15 situations would definitely suck big time. I've been a quad 26 years and fortunately have never experienced any of those. On my list: 1. ventilator stopped working while in van on the road (happened twice) 2. ventilator disconnecting in van while on freeway I've been in bed 24/7 for a 19 months now. Does it suck? No. I have been sleep better than when I was getting out of bed everyday. why? because I can wake-up when I am rested not when I need to so the nurse can transfer me to my chair before leaving. It also use to take an hour to put cloths on and transfer to the wheelchair, about 30 minutes to transfer back to bed at night. I now have that time to be on the computer or just watch tv. Use to just sit at the computer all day, watch tv on my computer. Now I'm in bed, use my computer and watch tv on a 42" tv. Life hasn't changed much, just have more time to do what I enjoy.

Some have more then others and I get that. I don't want my email blown up with crap like this. We still have choices. We can choose to be a victim or choose to direct our own lives. You choose how you respond to situations. If anyone wants to have an issue with me wanting to leave because of this, that's sad, because you don't need to waste your time over me not agreeing with you. I just wanted an out and you can all go on your merry way. I haven't even had time to respond to anything other then this, so it's not like you'll miss me. 😉 Thanks for the out Dan - I'll make sure and deposit the blood...

Re: [QUAD-L] Quick poem
A simple poem gets people to quit the list? I would expect more from people
that have been through as much life experience.

Quad Life Every night when I go to bed, I pray to god to wake up dead. As
morning comes, I always get scared, because another day must be beared.
People say to look above, but all I get is abused and shoved. Life took a
young man with hopes and dreams, and reduced him to nothing as so it seems. I
try as I may to still be a man, during the bowell routines and all the hell
that quad life demands. Everyones forgotten who I was , and treat me like shit
just because. I started strong in this game, but when I
think...who is to blame? Was I just another victim of circumstance or from
the beginning did I have no chance? As the years go by it means less and less
because I am still human nevertheless. Ron

Although I know the quad life is a difficult one to say the least we need to think and share more good thoughts. Looking for more positive thoughts!

[QUAD-L] Quick poem
Quad Life Every night when I go to bed, I pray to god to wake up dead. As morning comes, I always get scared, because another day must be beared. People say to look above, but all I get is abused and shoved. Life took a young man with hopes and dreams, and reduced him to nothing as so it seems. I try as I may to still be a man, during the bowell routines and all the hell that quad life demands. Everyones forgotten who I was , and treat me like shit just because. I started strong in this game, but when I think...who is to blame? Was I just another victim of circumstance or from the beginning did I have no chance? As the years go by it means less and less because I am still human nevertheless. Ron
