AS nasty as this is, it is certainly a predictable part of life. I
think most quads are not with who they were with before their sci. (I know
there are exceptions.) There are a few times in life when we are
completely on our own - birth and death come to mind 1st. I know you will
survive this because you are a fighter like the rest of us quads here, we
don't give up anything. OK, walking, running, dancing...... but you get
the idea. I'm sure your next companion will be much better for and to
you. We are all behind you here on the list Jim. Just keep on
keeping on. Best of luck to you.

Well, it finally happened.
My wife informed me about a month and a half ago that she was leaving
and taking my 15 soon-to-be 16-year-old daughter with her. On October 1st she took off and only
time will tell what's going to happen.
I'm still in my house with my 23-year-old son and my wife and daughter
are renting a house about 16 miles away.
She does not know what she is going to do in terms of divorcing or not
but she's told her best friend that she needs some time away. She has refused to take the family to
any counseling since my injury in 2000 and she refuses to go to any type of
marriage counseling together or alone.
She made this decision all on her own without talking to me, her best
friend, sister or mother. It was
not a real big surprise to me because I knew something was up but still it is
not something that I was looking forward to.
I was in the process of changing caregiving agencies because the one I
am with is having trouble staffing me. Interim Health Care told my told the
social worker that they could take my case and at the very last moment they
changed their mind so I'm still with my old agency and my evening caregiver
has already got a different job so now after Wednesday evening I do not know
what's going to happen. More news
at 10 I guess.
