Hi Jason,
That is so great to hear! Life is so much better when you're controlling it with a hearty spirit. That was a wonderful way to show how you felt about your new love. Way to go!!!!
With Love,

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 I learned a lot in the past year, especially not to lose hope.Instead of being sad or withdrawn this year on the second anniversary of my accident, I spent it with my new love.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 JTC6 quad, two years post-, August 2, 2004
