Re: [QUAD-L] Happy hurtday to me
I got it at 21, so I fully understand its a second birthday. actually its appropriate to celebrate it because without modern technology you and all of us would of been dead shortly after the accident. B4 world war 2 I think I read a spinal cord injured person lived about 2 years in bed. So do a lap around the hood just because you can Larry!!

Re: [QUAD-L] Happy hurtday to me
I'm glad you're ALL around. I really enjoy the stories, information and camaraderie of this forum. I like what Quadius said about accentuating the positive. Awesome! My anniversary is in August, but I honestly cannot remember the date. I don't celebrate it or mourn it, really. But, it will be 32 years this year. Best wishes everyone! Don.

I just celebrated my 19th year of being able to breathe without a ventilator. August 6, 1995. I was injured in early April, but I like to celebrate August 6. Accentuate the positive.
