Your message came through fine Alan! It looks like we
have a couple of new members almost at the same time -- Angie and
Alan. Hmmmm .... a possible romance? big age difference but
these days age covers a broad spectrum. My husband is 15 1/2
years older than I am and I am sure glad that he is [as far as
intellect, love, and company].
If you read my welcome to Angie then you will know my
history.
This is a great list to be on and I prefer it over other
lists. But I am on one other list called the SCIC [Spinal
Cord Injury Caregivers] that you might also want to join for a couple of
reasons. There are several people on that list who are in
Florida and they talk about Florida a lot. So you might get more
answers about caregivers by participating in that list as well.
You have to be "okay'd" by the owner of
that list but unless there is some wild and wacky reason for someone to
be turned down ... people are welcome. For information and how to
subscribe go to http://listserv.tamu.edu/cgi/wa?SUBED1=scic&A=1
Marie Potts is the list owner and it is
PRIMARILY for caregivers but there are several quads on the list as
well. I hope that the above address is the correct one but it is
is not ... I'm sure someone will correct me [like Dave Kelmer hopefully
;-) ]
We have had many discussions on who is the
oldest quads living these days so you sound like you are right up there
with one other gentlemen that is on this list.
Welcome again!
