[QUAD-L] multiple sclerosis victim burns to death

[DEBRA DEW]

aa friend of mine on Facebook  told me her father's trailer burned down  
yesterday  and his girlfriend had multiple sclerosis  that he has lived with  
for many years and ttaken  care of her.  They live in Washingtonsstate out in 
the country. The father escaped unharmed  but his girlfriend was killed.  This 
is the reply I sent back to her…

Scruggs is she a 
tetraplegia victim from multiple sclerosis as I am? A few years ago a power 
strip on the ffloor next to my bed caught fire and would've burned me up in my 
bed except that mmiraculously a nurse walked in and saw about a 1 inch flame 
coming out of the power strip and disconnected it from the wall socket..if the 
bed and caught fire,, I would not have been able to do anything to get away 
from it. Rather unpleasant thought.it must be horrible for your father and I 
know lots of people will be praying for him..by the way,  the power strip  
under my bed was  a very expensive good one  but the nurses were stepping on it 
with their toes when they would be next to my bed and I wasn't aware of it  and 
of course  eventually shorted out as any electrical appliance would do that was 
abused.  I still haven't figured out  how to get the power strip off of the 
floor.

a hhandicapped father with 2 young daughters ,, drowned  as teenagers watched 
him and did not even offer to help  and instead cursed at him… and below the 
article is what the Bible says about seared 
cconsciences…http://www.floridatoday.com/story/news/crime/2017/07/20/teens-filmed-mocked-drowning-man-cocoa-police-say/495518001/


I Timothy 4:2 "Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with 
a hot iron;"

"Hypocrisy" is the claiming something to be very religious and of God, when in 
fact it goes completely against God's Word. The one that holds that "hot iron" 
is Satan, and he though his seducing spirits and doctrines of devils will catch 
the unsuspecting minds of God's people, and sear the conscience of their minds 
to where they can't tell the difference between what is from God, and what is 
of the devil Satan.

When someone was wounded, you sear their wound over with a hot iron, and it 
sterilizes and prevent impurities from entering the wound. When Satan seared 
with his hot iron, just the opposite happens; it seals the wound of their mind, 
and prevents the truth with understanding from entering into their conscience 
mind. It causes the Christian that has been seared from understanding the 
truth, and they accept the lies of Satan's seducing spirits, and those 
doctrines of devils and think that it is truth. The searing over by the hot 
iron leaves a scar to where the wound is not as sensitive. When that hot iron 
hits your conscience mind, then your mind is not as sensitive to leading of the 
Holy Spirit of God as well.

Each time you feed your children with the trash from television, it causes 
their minds to be less sensitive to the point that many times they have trouble 
separating what is right from wrong, what is truth from what is a lie, and 
reality from fiction. What happens to your children and yourself when you allow 
this to happen, is that they become branded in their minds, they take on a 
brand or seal, which is also a mark in their minds of Satan who controls the 
beast of these latter days.

This is why we should train ourselves to hold a thought, watch a subject and 
object that is being taught in God's Word, whereby we can judge man's doing by 
it. Therefore we can know if we are getting involved with someone that has been 
listening to seducing spirits or not.

Re: [QUAD-L] Echo ?

[greg]

Thanks much,
So far I have an Echo, Dot, Harmony Hub.
I can turn tv on/off, turn channel, vollume. I can't bring up drv, guide, on-demand. Not sure it can do that yet. But I can use voice with my Cox Cable remote. But I have to hit a button first.
The Dot is in another room and I can talk with anyone in that room.
So it pretty cool, but it would be nice to be able to use it to control the whole remote.

I kept changing my mind. Thought the heat was the worst, then the joystick jabbing my soulder, then the hard to breat thing. But I'd yell and it would change again. The shoulder is lasting the longest, still hurts. But the heat was the thing I thought was going to do me in.

Re: [QUAD-L] Echo ?

[Jim Lubin]

This page lets you check which devices the Harmony Hub works with <
https://support.myharmony.com/en-us/compatibility>. Check if your devices
are on the list. Pretty much any TV with an IR remote will work.

This article is really good at explaining setting it up and using the Echo
(any model).

[QUAD-L] Medicare?

[greg]

Does anyone have Social Security help covering attendants?
I know Medicaid will, but was told when at a VocRehab meeting that I should make an appointment with SS to get help.
She was wrong on a few other things, so thought I'd ask.
 
Thanks, Greg

I'm guessing we all have similar, multiple stories. I keep telling myself that 
this time will be the last time, whether because I'll be more careful or the 
results won't be positive, but, like you said, it's part of quadlife…

When my son was two, he and I were out tooling around in the neighbors 
backyard. It was about 90°. We were going at a pretty good clip when all of a 
sudden my front wheel found a pothole hiding beneath the grass. Like you my 
head was thrown between my knees. I could not get up nor yell. It scared my 
little son to death. It was a heck of a situation. Finally, he ran to the back 
door crying. My wife finally heard him and came looking for me. I was rescued

I was going out the back door and fell forward. Into my lap. Joystick jammed my 
shoulder, but kept me from going further forward. Outside, 100 degrees, record 
humidity. Hard to breath, overheated, etc. Pouring sweat from A.D. It was bad. 
I thought it was hours, but it was just over 1 hour. I had to dump cold water 
on my head, put ice packs on. No one could hear me. It was no fun. The thoughts 
that go though your head. Between the pain, overheating, breathing, etc. No

You get some bad thoughts while sitting, face down. I was assuming I was going to wake up in the ER.
I was sweating so bad. Then every time I yelled for help, I was out of breath, etc.
No fun... Thx
