Hi Jason,
You have a great attitude and your love is a lucky lady.  I'm glad you were unable to have a day of hope on you second anniversary of your injury.
 
Nice to meet you.

Dana.

I'm glad you're out celebrating life instead of mourning the past.
What a great e-mail to post showing how life's not over after sci!
 
Have a great time JT and post more often, it's good to hear about living with sci instead of dealing with it.
 
Mark

I have been waiting to send a message to the group. Last year on August 2 I was reading the 12 pages of advice, most of which I received from the quad list. I don't post very often, but most days I read all of the messages. I learned a lot in the past year, especially not to lose hope.

Instead of being sad or withdrawn this year on the second anniversary of my accident, I spent it with my new love. It was her birthday and I told her I had to go to work, even though I usually work from home on Wednesdays. I had her convinced that I wasn't going to do much for her birthday.

Instead of going to work I went to a few stores, purchased several presents, balloons, cards, flowers, two cakes, and a bunch of her favorite foods. I decided to make the most of the day and be happy to be alive.

Just thought I'd share, since somehow I feel like I know most of you guys. Thank you for being there in your own way. What a great support network.

Bye for now JT
