Hi,
I have had the honor of meeting a fellow by the name of Jim Boen who has 
written a book called "50 years of Quadriplegia."  He should by now be 75 years 
old.  When I met him last autumn, he appeared to be in quite good health.  His 
eyes were still very bright, and he certainly had a wonderful attitude.  If you 
enter his name into a search engine, you can find his free book. I found it to 
be very, very entertaining, as well as enlightening.  His PCA commented that he 
is probably the nation's oldest and longest living quad.  If you guys do look 
up his book, let me know what you think of it.
Journey well through life.

who is the oldest quad you are aware of, 
  living or not living.  I wonder what our real life expectancy is.
   
  The oldest quad I knew was a c5/6 46 yr post who passed away at 62.
   
  Thanks!
