Re: [QUAD-L] 46 years post SCI
today I'm not feeling too young myself. However, I am only 17 years into this life of quadriplegia. Congratulations on making to 46. Q On Fri, Sep 7, 2012 at 6:23 PM, gah17...@aol.com wrote: ** 63 years old, feel 110 today. Glenn Henry

Re: [QUAD-L] 46 years post SCI
Tom, It's great to have a friend who is also a quad that you can tat to who REALLY understands what your talking about through trills tribulation's. I'm 39 years post and have lost about 5 to 7 Quad friends from all kinds of complications. A lot of times on the Q-list I get so, so VERY angry. Think I do that because I have no Quad Friends to talk to anymore. And I've been going through a lot if pain and I had to stop driving about 1 year ago. But I am extremely lucky. October 3rd Pete, my husband (but not legally) will be celebrating 30 years together and he has taken EXCELLENT care of me 24/7/365 for over 27 years, he cooks, cleans, shops, dish's, laundry, take's care of all my needs and NOW has to drive me wherever I need to go. We have our own apartment too. Basically, I'm doing less ( because my limitations are increasing with each year) so he has to do more and more and more. Pete is just now feeling stressed, he's 62 I'm 57 and it's getting so much harder for us. I wish Pete had someone to talk to as well regarding care taking. I'm crying as I'm typing this because I'm exhausted from dealing with my Quad life … no it's not a life I'm just existing. I'm only able to be up in my chair 7 to 8 hours. I'm just tired, very tired of it all. Bobbie Sent from my iPad On Sep 9, 2012, at 7:46 PM, Thomas E.

Re: [QUAD-L] 46 years post SCI
From another 63 year old who is only 23 years post. I feel 110 but can't even imagine being injured at 17 or 18 would be like. Keep your head up Glen, you've come through a lot, and I for one, can appreciate your successes in overcoming the challenges you have beaten to get this far. Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do! Sent from Billy's IPAD2 On Sep 7, 2012, at 18:23, gah17...@aol.com wrote: 63 years old, feel 110 today. Glenn Henry
