Dan, actually that is 99-44/100% correct. Back in 1996 while at the Paralympics in Atlanta, I met several quads at the games in the best shape of their lives. C5/6 and C7, these quads were flat and hard. They also worked the Permobil Booth at several exhibitions and signed pictures of

You just have to eat a very low-fat diet a good portion of fruits and vegetables and minimal portions on rare occasions of something like ice cream or cake. I stick with Buffalo, Turkey, fish and not much bread or noodles and if you do eat whole grains. I like tomatoes soup and my mom

Hi Dana, Thank you for the good wish. You said that Roserem did nothing for you, it is a mild sleeping pill. I think the vicoden is 750mg, it is not that strong. I can't believe so many people claim it's addicting. Everyone matabolizes medications differently. I ordered my neck warmer from a

If you lean forward over your knees each morning for about 5 minutes, the quad gut starts to shrink. Where did you get a mojo and how did your gutt have any effect on it. Good luck. john -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: quad-list@eskimo.com Sent: Mon, 12 Mar 2007

Regarding Texas and pot, you are so right John. I know people from the 60's still in jail for having a joint. That's why Bush went to school in another state and so did his daughters. Being a successful quad (if there is such a term) means that you are always planning ahead to survive.

Dear Linda, Vicodin is hydrocodone. It is synthetic heroin and it really is addicting. I've been taking 5mg's for a few years and I sure can't just stop. Doctor says if I have to change I'll need methadone before taking anything else. It is effective and stays working for most people for many
