I got life insurance about 1 year ago. I am a C6-7 quad. I am in what
they considered very good shape ... for a quad. I was able to get a 1
million dollar renewable term life insurance policy from Beneficial
Financial for $350 per month. They told me I was rated as highly as a
quad could be at my age (40) then. I am sure an AB would be paying
less than half of that. Depending on your health, it can be done, but
not very cheaply.

I have talked with quite a few insurance companies about
life insurance for myself and most say YOUR A QUADRIPLEGIC---good
luck we can't help you at all. One guy just said that quads have to
many medical factors against them...including not normal bladder or
bowel use..and said those 2 things alone plus risk of bladder
infections and etc. make it extremely hard for a reliable Insurance
Co. to cover them......Quads are considered VERY HIGH RISK.

I recently took out life insurance,but after reading this
article,it seems that upon my death it will be null and void as, it
seems quadriplegia will always be a contributing factor to my
death. Should i cancel it ?
