  Did I mention porn yet?
  In all honesty two and three are the very ones, but keeping away from number

What keeps me going?  Playing crack the whip with my grandkids on roller
skates or skateboards.  Answering little kids questions and watching the
adults get closer and closer so they can hear too.  Realizing that my dreams
are not yet accomplished and I still have much I want to do.  Finding out
that my youngest daughter is going to have a baby in January-my seventh
grandchild-and my oldest granddaughter is going to have a baby in
December-my second great grandchild, so I have to stick around so that they
get a chance to know me also.  Going to a horse show and interacting with
all the kids, and getting to cheer them all on.  Watching the envy on the
other first graders when my youngest granddaughter gets to ride on my chair,
and then enjoying giving rides to any one who wants them, even the teacher
assistant.  LOL

Life is great, SCI sucks, but the alternative was not acceptable.

First, I refuse to be defined by my injury.  I am much more: a father, 
programmer, writer and teacher.  I just happen to be in a wheelchair. 

My biggest inspiration --before and after injury-- has always been my eternal 
quest for laughs.  Friends, family, books, Internet and movies are all great 
resources.  Humor is by far the best medicine for whatever ails you!

Being stubborn, they need to prove everyone wrong, friends and family, the

but it's something you either overcome or fall into a loop of depression.
