I'm like you 2 guys...I'm 58 and right at 18 years post and life keeps getting 
harder for me and my wife caregiver, my 1st - Ten years as a quad were 
wonderful compared to now, these days I never sleep well and have so much more 
aches and pains even with all the meds I take, thank goodness not all days are 
real bad...I have some pretty good days but on other days I feel like I'm 
turning into a grumpy old man--i don't see how Joni Erickson Tada and a few 
others can be soooooooooooo cheerful all the time, I try but it is a stuggle !  
 Happy 4th to yopu all today !!!   Dan H***

 I gotta agree.  I think living follows a rule of diminishing return.  Being 
the oldest living quad would be an awful epitaph. Being 40 years post, the 
concept of eternal rest gets a bit more acceptable than beating a record. of 
merely existing. I'm with you Larry.

Call me a pessimist but I have no desire to be an old quad. Just don't see the 
return.
