I had the same question Dana but never a real answer, they just don't and it makes no sense at all.

Mark,
 
Why is there such a big difference, depending on your age of injury?  , I know a guy who died, in Kansas City, because he did not have any care during the night and he was on a ventilator 24/7.  He wanted to live independently, he died because of that.  Independent should not be something, one has to give up, just because they are ventilator dependent.
He was a peer support counselor and he came to the hospital to try to tell me that I could live with a ventilator, when I thought I was going to have one.
 
Dana.
