Jeff....Most of us Quads can very well relate to what you said here ! To sum
it up for me is that-- Life itself is a challenge for everyone on Earth in many
different ways. Life is not always easy or fair while we are here. I think that
for a person to kill themselves is wrong and not part of Gods intended plan for
mankind. ( although who am I to Judge anyone ) I just try to do my best while
here in facing all the hard challenges, and learn or grow in any way
possible...Plus try to enjoy the best things in life that I can, such as eating
a good meal, watching a good movie or listening to good music, and enjoy my
family and friends as much as possible. I was lucky to begin to have grand kids
after my accident and it's been a joy watching them learn and grow. I have had
some cool pets too...had an Amazing Red Doberman that would mind and obey
almost like a human, sadly (Sabra ) passed away just short of 9 years of age.
So I think we must just try to do our best until our time here is over. Other
quads on here may have some more views on this subject, take care ! Dan H. **

Post Subject: [QUAD-L] Why keep pushing on Why do people keep pushing on? I
mean it's bad enough to be substantially disabled, but it doesn't stop there.
People, in general, don't want to be around you. It's difficult to go places
and do things; average things that most people do all the time. And you know
from experience that illnesses and such can pop up at any moment, much more
easily than the average person. You try like hell to avoid being dependent on
the government but it's nearly impossible, even if you work full-time. That
means you constantly have someone with which to answer. Someone with their own
rules, who can't begin to understand you and what you go through on a daily
basis. I could see where if you were recently disabled then maybe you haven't
been through enough to realize what life is going to throw your way, but what
about those of us that have been around a while? What keeps you pushing on… Jeff
