Yeah, I know I'm lucky. I did lose use of a couple muscles that controls my hand, unfortunately the padding at the bottom of the thumb is almost gone.
It was a hard time. I had and still have her, a beautiful, strong and smart wife. Tiny as she is she packs a lot of woman in her 100lbs.
I guess the worst thing is demanding you're going to beat this and walk. I could and still can wiggle my toes and feet. I would spend hours trying to make more happen, started drinking hard, I couldn't drive at the time. One day it was too much and I took over 150 pills, I woke up gasping for air and was going into cardiac arrest, we're 2 blocks from the firestation. They came into my room, was using the defibrillator and took me to the hospital. They told my wife, mother, brothers and family I wouldn't make it. Spent a week in a medical induced coma.
Enough of the bad news. I'm living 8 years later, love my wife, love my life. I have a honda element that drops out ramp, I take my chair in, a pin like a semi trailer uses automatically locks me in and I press a button to fold up the ramp. If it's the weekend and I have a free day I have a 2011 camaro that I take out for fun. I just transfer in, back up my chair and drive out of the garage. I have an ultralight chair, made out of titanium actually, in the back seat if I want or need to get out. I started working out again, getting, stronger feeling better I don't drink anything anymore and feel good. I still have feeling below my injury site which is nice that it allows me to enjoy sex with my wife. I can perform without viagra but face it, I can use the little boost it gives.
I also always liked her on top. :headbang:
