Good for you Sandy! I'm with ya! If Christianity wasn't holding everything back, there probably would've been a cure by now. I'm sure this will get some "interesting" feedback, but f*ck it! Christianity is the worst thing to happen to the human race. If Jesus existed, he was an alien, face

Every surgery I've had in the last several years always has vent issues for recovery. I'm on an LP-10, 24/7. The hospitals don't even have them anymore! At least, that's what they tell me. They put me on "continuous flow" vents. I hate those! It's basically hyperventilating. I have my vent

I blame the f*cker that hit me with his car for my status. Religion gets in the way of science, it's true. If there wasn't "moral conflicts" things would probably move along faster. You can still make the best of being quadriplegic, or in my case, ventilator dependent and quadriplegic, and

My vent stays on my chair, so wheeling down to the OR on the table thing and being transferred to the operating table, then being wheeled into recovery, and waiting for my parents and chair with my vent, all requires the hospital to provide a vent. It wasn't an issue 5-4 years ago, they had and

I'll have to remember that, Sandy. I doubt they'll do it, though. They get defensive when they don't know something about what I request and/or need. That's always a joy. The next time I need a surgery, (hopefully not for a long, long time, the last one put me at number 24 or 25, I've lost

I've thought basically the same thing, only having his children, wife, or his church-whipped ass be paralyzed from a spinal cord injury at the levels C1 C2, so it results in a ventilator dependent quadriplegic body, (like mine), would be better. No death sentence in sight, ya see. That would

Re: [QUAD-L] Viewing the Big Picture

Partial birth abortions are something I'm not keen on, but the choice shouldn't be taken away. What's so great about human life? There's too many people alive already. Most of which are assholes. So what if embryos are made for parts? If they aren't yours, it shouldn't matter. That's my opinion.
