Re: [QUAD-L] Quality of Life and SCI ~~ Huh?

I have found you can't live in the past. You can't dwell on what could have been or you will die of depression and a broken heart. In the short time I have been part of this group, I have made some interesting observations. At first I sat back and listened to everybody. I found all of us have strong convictions and strong opinions and strong personalities. And I believe that's why all of us successfully survive and LIVE with our severe disabilities. Others simply give up and die. About the infamous "quality of life" question everyone seems so interested in asking us, they should live in our chair for a day, a week, a month, a year. For me the key is all attitude and keeping busy. We must all keep fighting and searching for what makes us satisfied and content. It's out there somewhere! Sandy
