Re: The first quadrapelegic crew member on the Northwestern? What do you think?

Hello and welcome ...I'm impressed with the fact you have a sense of humour about being quadrapelegic , I've heard people say it gets them through most of the physical obstacles that get in their way. My sister has MS and no I'm not comparing , it's just that when she was diagnosed everyone in the family broke down and I continued to tease the crap out of her! I've never been Miss sensitivity! lol

If I didn't laugh, I would drive myself to the looney bin, lol, and I try to make humorous entrances to help ease the akwardness of those around me. I forget sometimes even though it can be a traumatic deal for me, it can be difficult for those i interact with. my moms best friend has ms, and witnessing the decline is heartbreaking, I can only imagine what it's like for loved ones.
