I have never met a someone from Finland and therefore cannot truly comment
on them, but I can tell you that as someone who spent almost 9 years in
Germany, this feeling is not uncommon.  John was also correct in mentioning
there are several people here who have that sentiment.  They believe in
social Darwinism, until something happens to them.


Things are really different over there and I definitely wouldn't try to
immigrate until you have gone over there for a visit to see if you'll like
it.  If you have, then go for it.  You will never be able to change some
people's minds.
Take care and good luck.

I to had lived in Germany for three years.  My dream was to one day return
there, I loved it so much.  After my spinal injury, like most of us destiny
is often not ours to choose.  What capacity were you there.  Perhaps things
have changed, but as you say to visit first is a good idea because as
beautiful as everything is, Europe for the most part is hard to impossible
to get around in a wheelchair.  Fins are a hardy good bunch of people but my
guess is that the average person does not come by a spinal injury often in a
lifetime.

[QUAD-L] Baclofen Pump?

2008-07-29 Thread Greg
Are there any on the List who have the Baclofen Pump?

I have been corresponding with a lady who's son-in-law was just in an
accident and paralyzed C/4/5.

He has very bad spasms and pain and they want to get a Baclofen Pump and
would like to talk to a few people who have been through it.

If you could answer a few questions for her could you let me know?

Thank you very much,

Greg

Re: [QUAD-L] Baclofen Pump?

2008-07-29 Thread wheelchair
Its not something you choose first but rather determine if you are a  
candidate for the pump.
Once that is determined, then you can decide if you really want it.   Hope 
your friend is a good
candidate for the pump.
