I read about quads from the 60s. 70s 80s on google and how long they lived. 
some are still alive and that gives me hope. If another man did it than that 
means someone else can do it to. I told my mother. at my funeral , make 
it clear that I tried and did what I could. For reasons I wont discuss I have 
had little to no contact with any family except mom , dad and bro since the 
accident . keep rolling as Diane said.

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the response I received about the hands-free telephone. I really 
appreciated the input, unfortunately, I am TECHNOLOGICALLY challenged and don't 
really understand about magnets, etc... As someone said in a movie talk to me 
like I am a six-year-old. A recent friend of mine (Glenn) recommended this 
site and I am very glad because everyone knows the difficulties of life as a 
quadriplegic. As I said earlier, the phone must be entirely hands-free for me 
to operate it. My problem lies in the fact that I am not sure how much I will 
need the phone. I have my Masters Degree in Nursing, live at home with my 
parents (who are elderly)--have a sitter who works week days. I say this 
because I need to go back to work (from home) using the computer and/or the 
telephone. I am enrolled in the Social Security Ticket to Work program because 
from what I've seen a nursing home is no place for a quadriplegic--without 
sitters who will work more hours than I can afford (without going back to 
work). One of my options, is telephone triage which would require easy, 
effective use of the telephone. I appreciate any input.

Thanks,
Larry W Hopkins 

RE: [QUAD-L] Thanks

2014-09-27 Thread Joan Anglin
Good afternoon Larry

It would probably help with question if you would say what level you are,
and how much function you actually have. Most of us on here were
technologically challenged before having to use technology. (as for me, I
can remember when we lived in Germany and I wanted to call home to Reno, I
had to place the call 24 hours before and and the operator came on and said
that my number was ready to be dialed I want to go through with a phone call
at this time!)

Computers are magnificently improving and voice recognition is moving ahead
leaps and bounds. You might want to go to NUANCE website and check out
Dragon. They have many versions of Dragon and a medical one also.

One difficulty of doing Triage would be using the phone and the computer
simultaneously by voice. Don't jump into anything too expensive or too
permanent until you have looked at many options. Have you already been
through your state's vocational rehabilitation services? Depending upon the
state, they might have more resources and many states have technological
labs so that you can try different things and they will train you with that.

Many of us use different voice and communication options starting with Jim
Lubin who started this great list. Ask away, the only question that is a
stupid question is no question that didn't get asked. J

Hi List Readers

Well I'm home from my 8 day holiday to Southern California, and it was
awesome.

But first I'd like to thank Don P for his recent post from the Reeve
Foundation.

I've been wondering about getting an iPhone or ipad and their website is
full of relevant info about their use by us.

But my trip, we flew Air New Zealand who are great, couldn't have been any
better really nice people eager to help.

As I'm a c4/5 I used an 'eagle-lift' to get in and out of my aircraft seat,
at LAX they told me I was only the 2nd person to use their' s.

Basically it's a sling type electric hoist, I stayed in my power chair to
the aircraft door.

They then put sling under you, hoist you up and wheel you with the eagle to
your seat (first on).

The eagle then sort of straddles your seat (1 leg being your seat, other in
front) then you are lowered to your seat.

The sling removed and that's it, I did sit on my roho for the 12 hour flight
also.

Then :-

Accessible super shuttle from lax to desert palms, Anaheim where we stayed,
taxi and hotel not too dear  ok for accessibility.

First night, bubba Gump scrimp co. restaurant, good value  food, even had
lieutenant Dan wheeling around !

Next day Disneyland, great experience, ya gotta do it, went on a few rides 
the monorail.

Next day had a rental kneeling Dodge van delivered from Mobilityworks, great
van, people and service.

This we drove to universal studios and did the train tour there, was fun.

Next day Getty Centre, WOW, man you have to go there before y'all die, its
freakin fantastic. Land, carpark, tramway, gardens, building, art, the whole
think blew my mind, even hit me on an emotional level. GO THERE !

Next day, shopping at the Citadel, great place, 142 shops, everything there,
cheap as, better than duty free. Got levis and skeechers that fitted my big
frame $40 each. Did rain however but still great.

Last couple of days, at Disney and looking around Anaheim.

Then back to lax and home again.

Thanks to the US of A, and you folks here for your pointers.

You made my trip much, much better than it would have been.

2010-08-18 Thread Dave Krehbiel
It is nice to find a forum which focuses on the needs of quadriplegics.
Thank you very much for your replies to my earlier questions. I can now cut
and paste using Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and I have been researching some
of the quality of life related organizations you have referred me to.

 

On another issue: have you found any computer games which you can play using
Dragon NaturallySpeaking?

 

Three games I have enjoyed are:

 

Snood (free trial version available)

 

Web sudoku

 

Minesweeper (included with at least some versions of the
Microsoft operating system)

 

It seems there are precious few games which do not require manual dexterity.
I would be especially interested in learning about any online role-playing
games which can be played patiently and strategically.

 

Take care,

You can get a lot of information from people on this site.  And most of it
is with a great sense of humor which is necessary to deal with being a quad.

In 1990 when I was first injured I was at Santa Clara rehab and they had a
Macintosh and were just beginning to teach people to use the computers.
Ironically I had a Macintosh SE at home so I was already up to date, but I
hadn't played any games on it to speak of, except for Shanghai or Mahjongg.
I still play it in the newer versions are fantastic compared to 1990.  I do
not use dragon but I use windows seven speech recognition and except for the
normal problems with external noise that is inherent with speech recognition
it works very well.  Don't know if you would consider mahjongg a game, but I
enjoy it.

Greetings Again,

My internet searches of DME and Providers in Jordan, Saudi Arabia was not
very rewarding, in terms of finding the name of those companies providing
wheelchairs and scooters in your country.  Perhaps, I was using the wrong
terminology as I know that Jordan is rich in resources for those with
disAbilities and the organizations which support them.  I'm sure their  titles 
are
different there which complicates any search.
I did see where some corporate efforts were made in Jordan, to supply a 
free wheelchair to individuals in need.

I also hope that, by now, you have made contact with the organization,

Ron,
I once chose to become a Florida State trooper and loved the job, but I have
also seen many people suffer a similar fate.  It's sad when many of the
people out there trying to be good public servants are betrayed by the very
system they are sworn to defend.  I hope one of these days you are able to
find a way to get everything you would like out of life.
Respectfully,
Quadius

Hi Michael. What took you so long to find this list...just curious. Glad you 
found this site. It is very helpful wether you are a new quad or a older. 
  I am not a quad but my boyfriend is. He is a member here. Fell off a

Thanks John. I forgot to say it is an intermittent cath, so when I insert it 
my bladder is usually full. That is why I usually have a stream instead of a

your output normal? It should be draining your bladder as the urine drains
from your kidneys. this doesn't normally happen in streams. It, however, 
can
happen. I would pay attention to amount of output and color as well as 
oder.
Ideally, make a list of questions and ask your urologist. I haven't used a 
cath in

a while and I'm going from memory.

Good luck William

The optometrist I go to has a wheelchair room and you don't have to use 
transfer, which is great. I don't know with all doctors have this. 
Getting transferred is always a problem. My gynecologist also happens to 
have a wheelchair room, were you transfer into a lowerchair that moves, 
much easier than a table,. Getting transferred is always a problem there's 
never enough manpower. At least at the wound center they seem to have 
persons to transfer. We are usually a minority in their 
clientele.I agree with you about clinics, that is why I stopped 
going to KU, or it was treated for my spinal cord injury). I prefer to go 
to a smaller hospital or a group that is not like a clinic, and you are there 
all day. Of course it depends on how organized it is.

Hi Susan,

My Mom is 76 and had a 5-way bypass done in 1998. She recentlyhad some tests indicate one of the 5 arteries needed to be re-opened and a shunt placed in it. She went in for this on Monday, the 17th of Oct., and the Surgeon decided the shunt wasn't needed after looking at the arterywith a scope. 

I understand your father's concern, and while my Mom doesn't have a SCI, she does have diabetes. I can tell you that once she had the bypass her strength, enthusiasm, and stamina was so much better than before.

I would think getting the bypass out of the way will clear the way for further progress for your Dad. I'll keep him in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong.

Hi JT,

I'm sorry that this feedback is getting to you so late.  First, let me 
welcome you to the Quad-List.  As Lori says you've already received some 
good responses so I'll just add mine to them.


Every SCI case is different, just as every person is different, but one 
thing most of us will agree on is that the first couple of years after a 
SCI are the hardest.  It may not be that life gets better but you'll learn 
to deal with life in a better way.


I was white-water rafting on the Upper Salt River in '76 when I broke my 
neck at C4-5.  I was 22 and had been married for 5 years.  We had two sons, 
5  2 1/2, and I was managing the second largest car-wash in Phoenix 
(Freeway Car Wash, Black Canyon Highway  Camelback Rd.) at the time.  Part 
of my pay package was an insurance policy on me and my family, but the 
place had been sold to a new man in Jan. of '76, and he had changed 
insurance carriers, and to save money the new policy went into effect on 
May 01 and the old policy expired April 15.  I should have been on top of 
that but I was running the place, keeping the books straight, and doing all 
of the hiring  firing, and that little gap of two weeks went unnoticed 
until I broke my neck April 25!  Well, the old company felt real bad but 
they couldn't do anything to help, and the new company's policy hadn't 
taken effect yet so they felt real bad but they couldn't help, either.  
Life sure has a sense of humor!


I did my rehab at Good Sam, and took the ACT and with the help of VR I 
started taking classes at GCC.  I was taking the PT's advice and was 
pushing myself around campus in a manual chair.  I made the Dean's List the 
first semester and was on my face most of the time letting my bottom heal 
through the next semester.  I went back the next semester and made the 
Dean's List again, and spent the next 6 months letting the flap surgery I 
had to have done on my bottom heal.  With all of that time to think about 
my priorities my wife and I decided that it would be better if she went to 
work and I stayed home with the boys.


By this time life was starting to seem ''normal'' and things were looking 
better.  I was staying out of the hospital, had taken a position on the PTA 
Board at my boys school, and my wife was working days.  Life seemed like it 
would be okay but going in a new direction.  I took over running our home, 
getting the boys through school, and keeping my wife involved, etc.


Now, I know everyone is different, so by when I noticed that my wife was 
having trouble sleeping and showing other signs of depression we sat down 
and had a good long talk.  After talking with a councilor we were able to 
see that my wife felt like she wasn't contributing to our family, and that 
because we had married young she felt that there wasn't anything that she 
could look at and get the satisfaction that she'd accomplished that on her 
own.  She felt like her dad had taken care of her until we married and I 
had taken care of her since then.  I knew she was an equal partner in 
everything we had, but knowing something and changing the way someone feels 
are very different things.


We discussed different ideas but I could tell that if things continued the 
way they were going that in a year, maybe two, what she was feeling as 
dissatisfaction would turn to anger, and eventually hate, and it would be 
directed toward me.  So, in early '85 we came up with a plan that while I 
knew would be hard on me and our boys in the short run, would be the best 
thing for us all in the long run.  We decided that we would sell our home 
and she and our boys would move back to central MI where she grew-up and 
get a place that she felt was her own.  I moved back to Lincoln Park, a 
suburb of Detroit.  I would be far enough away so she would feel that she 
was going it alone, but close enough that my boys could come to visit when 
we needed to see each other.  The plan was for her to take two years and if 
she didn't think she had made the right decision we'd get back together and 
go on from there.


By late '86 she had succeeded in creating a new home and life that she felt 
she could call her own.  The boys had adjusted to the changes and I decided 
that she would be okay on her own, so I made the decision to move back to 
AZ where the weather was better suited for me.  The boys would stay with 
Mom and spend the summers with me.  I had an Uncle that lived in Arlington, 
TX that asked me if I wanted to spend a few weeks with them before going on 
to AZ.  I agreed and was staying with them for the start of the New Year, 
1987.

Hi Larry,

I have8 main different sets that I go through 30 times each. I do them while still in bed. Arms straight over my head up then brought downand back up, armsout to the side brought in meeting (I try to think I'm wrapping my arms around a beach ball), arms at my side bringing each one up to my chin, arms down brought up straight overhead (the reverse of set one so the breathe is let out on the opposite move, arms bent with hands at my chin then arms pushed out to the side and back in, arms straight out to the sidemaking circles, arms straight up overhead doing circles, arms in a bent position with a running movemen pump. Each move is made in time with a breath and with wrists cockedwhile I hold and relax. The longer I've worked on these moves I've found I'm able to work the muscles connected to the ones I can control (stomach, back, etc) and the faster I move the faster I breathe to keep my heart rate up. I wish t!
 his was
 clearer but if you're really interested I'm sure we can figure out a way to show you how each set is done. 

I hope this helps some.

I just want to thank Eric publicly for donating his telephone to one of our consumers diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.  She was unable to afford a phone that she could utilize due to a number of circumstances that unfortunately we find ourselves in one time or another.
 
I recommend to other people that if they have equipment that they are not using to donate it to someone who could use it.
 
Thanks again Eric!!
