Hi Stacy,
I thought that was what you meant. I didn't want anyone taking it out of context. We Quads and Paras have got to stick together. :)

That is what I meant by that statement Dave. I would never feel that way. I may be one of the rare para'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.Stacy----- Original Message -----From: David K.

At least I hope not! I know I don't think that way!
With Love,Your right in the aspect of everyday life. Of course I know that. The statement was related to relationships. Para's are still seen as paralyzed. In the aspect of getting looked at as a sexual being is just as hard for para's to face. To the opposite sex paralyzed is paralyzed.Stacy----- Original Message -----From: GregSent: Saturday, January 08, 2005 12:20 PMSubject: Re: [QUAD-L] Frustration/sensitiveThat statement shouldn't hurt anyone. It's true... Paras have it easier than quads. Just like a C5 like me has it easier than a C4. The more moement you have, the more you can do for yourself. If it's not a fact, than show me someone who would volunteer to break their spine a few levels higher.Greg"Stacy I wasn't implying that para's have it easier I was just saying if I had a good "Grip" I could help myself!"
