Dave,
I know that I'm paralyzed and I accept the fact that I am. I know what I can do and I know what I
cannot do from experience. When I
first got injured I figured I could still do just about everything I did before
but I learned quickly how vulnerable I was and what being paralyzed
ra's that knows what it's like to be a quad so I could never see all paralysis as the same. I know that I am damn lucky to be a para and not a quad.
