Hi, Beth I'm Tim from NH. my level is C5,6,7 conpleat. That you have a good atitude is a plus, always keep your head up for good or bad. Go to a site it's call journeyforward.org and look at Dan story and let me know what you think?? Also go to there program and read this. You can ask me ??'s on this. I think this will give you a lift it did me. I think this is a great site also, Insprier that is. What kinds of things have you gone through and how did you handle them? If you don't want to tell me thats ok. Im over 9yrs. into my accident I'v ben through it all. Beth read my profile, I'd like to be your friend. Talk to you soon.

Hello. My fiance has a T5 injury. He's gone from being fully paralyzed from the chest down to now getting around with a walker. It's been 2 and half years since his surgery. Feel free to keep in touch and ask questions if it helps in anyway. Stay strong!

Hi Beth, I am a T 4-5 complete, injured 4 years ago in a cycling accident. I am impressed that you are able to work full time so soon. My pain level and energy level are unpredictable so a regular work schedule does not seem possible.

I am fortunate to have the support of my family, my husband of 35 years and two children. I also have six younger brothers and sisters who have been very helpful. I hope you have similar support.

As a female I would be glad to answer any questions you might have. I know I felt initially both devastated and overwhelmed. I have learned how to deal with some issues but am generally not happy with my condition.

Best wishes to you. Shel
