Re: [QUAD-L] Air Travel

Keep in mind that the airlines are not covered by ADA, but rather the Federal Air Carrier Act. Know it and know your rights. Plan and plan well. Know how to disassemble your chair and reassemble it by heart, cuz the air goons merely guess and sometimes they are right. Know what is covere

RE: [QUAD-L] I'm new to the list!

Hi Debbie Welcome to the list, new women SCI are few and far between! I think we are in the minority for SCI, because God didn't really want us to be quads, but felt he had to balance out the ratios, so we are the chosen few. :-) :-). I am a C4, injured by a bad fall in our barn, and I am a compl

We are pleased to have you Debbie join our group. We will help with anything we can. It's always great to meet new friends that are also SCI, so we don't feel so alone. That is great that you got some return. I went to Craig twice after my injury, but I went to initial rehab in Des Moines
