I'll tell you it just never ends. All you could do is suck it up and deal with it. Be a man and don't bitch. Maintain your pride with your HEAD UP. Yeah right.
Recently not that it really matters, something has happened. In the past perhaps this appendage sometimes seemed to have a mind of it's own. But this appendage, which 3 years ago I deemed essentially useless for all intensive purposes has gone AWOL. Maybe having a mind of it's own and able to pick up on my feelings regarding the whole matter, Mikey's Mikey (since it had a mind of it's own it deserved a name) decided I can't deal with the embarrassment and I will descend into oblivion. Now Mikey's Mikey wouldn't even be worthy of a name like Pee Pee. Yep, Mikey's Mikey has gone into hiding or as Curtis Mayfield put it, "Freddy's dead." So should I maintain my pride and keep my HEAD UP? Easier said than done.
Still being one possessing a rapier wit along with a true sense of decorum, I thought the head up reference was worth repeating.
Damn paralysis really does suck! Rest in peace
Mikey's Mikey.

I know how you feel. It was certainly a sad day here when "Mikey" died. It's been a couple of years, but I still think of him and the fun we had together quite often.Hang in there. (sorry about the pun)

He may be dead outwardly, but his second brain still is alive and well. Just because he doesnt show himself, everything that made him what he was still exists, he just doesnt come out to play anymore. That is more horrific than death.... but nothing is worse than being told..... I love you but I need a hard **** so you wont do. ;(

Bill,
There have been many books written on paralysis. I have thought about it over 26,000 hours. You have summarized it. But we have to go on.
