I don't think those dark thoughts ever go away completely. Even now, after 35 yrs., I occasionally think how easy it would be to direct my Ford into a bridge abuttment. Thank goodness that fog rises pretty quickly. As humans facing nearly overwhelming odds, we quads always have that old devil despair camped on our doorstep. God, family, friends, and sheer willpower are our salvation. Be brave and hang tough.

I always wondered if anyone else ever had the same thought when they were
newly injured.

That's funny you said that Dana, I had the same thought that I'd roll myself
out in front of a semi.

Hi Barbara,

I'm glad you found this list, I did know did not know about it,  when I was
in new injury as I did not have the computer until 85 and not connected to the
Internet until 2003 .  I'm not even sure  when this was started, maybe
someone can tell us. I could never thank Jim Lubin enough for starting this list.
I'm not married, but  still looking, I have no children, just a 4.1 pound
female yourkie named Zoe. There is still life after SCI. Feel free to talk to us about anything, as I'm sure someone will be able to answer questions you may have and share their experiences. . I remember feeling hopeless, after I returned from rehab, I wanted to drive in front of a semi, but I figured with
my luck, I would not die, I would  just be more disabled.

Thank you for joining our list
Dana ( C4-5, 31 years post, 52, KC suburb  in Kansas)

Hi, I don't know if this is right but I need to ask a question about living,
or should I say existing, as a quad? I'm  a bit intimidated about how long
some of you have been quads. I was in a car accident July 4 2005 and I'm c 5 &
19 yrs old. I don't  think I want to live 10, 20, 30 or 40 years like this?
How do you guys do it? I'm so overwhelmed and scared. What am I sopo to do with
my  life like this? Are any of you guys married or have children?
Barbara
