Hello all,
Has anybody been able to acquire life insurance after being injured? If so,
what company?

My greatest issues at this time are stabbing shoulder pain and killer
depression. Sometimes I want to crawl in a box and close the lid. 46 years of
this agony is more than any human should have to endure. Feeling blue and
useless. Larry W.

I could not get life insurance anywhere except through a guaranteed acceptance
plan at work. It is only 50 thousand. It was 100k, but dropped because of my
age.

There are so many factors that go into how long a quad will live. Quality of
care, mindset, genetics, age of injury, severity of injury, male or female,
climate, weight, support in general, injury complications, drug use, quality of
doctor and hospital care, decisions made, and many more.

I found a research site
I found a research site the other day that had tables on quad info. The one
that struck me was, A C4-5-6 quad injured at age 20 can expect to live another
40 years on average. If that is true, then some of us tough nuts are beating
the odds. I'll see if I can find the site again.

You can't just glide side to side. You jerk left, then jerk right.
