Actually, I think a couple have me in quad years. G. Henry for one ... "In July will be 46 years post SCI I will be 62 years old". I hear ya Joan. I don't think I want to live into my 90s. One of my greatest fears is anesthesia. The last time I had general anesthesia I nearly died from pneumonia. I've had locals ever since, and that's been for a lot of surgeries ... the docs always say it's impossible, so I've learned to go to straight to the anesthesiologist. They always say "Hell yes!! - If you can handle being aware of what's going on." So, I'll keep doing that as long as I can!

I am not sure that I will live to see 45 years, nor am I sure that I’d want to. JThat would make me 96 years old. Of course I did not expect to live this long with being such a high quad. My greatest fear is that every time I need some sort of surgery they will have to put me on a respirator again as my neck is not flexible enough to intubate me. Oh well, we’ll cross that bridge when we have to. Have a great day everyone lovely weather Joan From:Nan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, April 21, 2013 10:28 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: Fwd: [QUAD-L] new Hey ...
