Jude,
It's not that I think any one site is better than the other, and is not so much
about interaction, as information It's just that quadriplegics have more and
different issues to deal with. There is also a site for TM quads who are vent
dependent, because they have more and different

On May 6th of this year I was visiting friends in Thunder Bay, Ontario,
Canada (where I am originally from and lived until 1999) when both myself and
the friend I was staying with got a very bad chest cold that lasted 2 ½ weeks.
It was actually longer but just the tired run down feeling

*Very well said. It's like that for NMO patients also. Although we too,
suffer from non traumatic SCI, our needs are very different than the typical

As a caretaker/mother of a daughter who has had TM for 4 years now; this

My son's fiancée was paralyzed with TM/spinal stroke almost 2 years ago. As you

the table leg as a splint, cushion it with lots of dish towels, and stick

Tracey,
I was shocked to read that your 11 year old daughter had TM. Bless her
heart, she has come a long way and I know that
that is only done with hard work. I am sure it was a family affair in
getting her to where she is. Bless you all.
