I told my mom the other day that if I was brain damaged to the extend that I was not able to communicate my wishes, I would not want to live like that. My mom said she would not even consider disconnecting the ventilator. If I was that "out of it" what would I really know about what was happening. If it made my mom feel better to have me around, even in a vegetative state, then that would be what I want.
Guess I never thought of it that way. 

So, here I am almost 16 years later, years that I might not have had if I lived in another part of the world. I just try to live each day to the fullest. Try to learn new things and do something positive for others
And that you have!
