Just want to say hello to all the members on this site.
I am a C2 -- C3 quadriplegic incomplete. I used to be
on a ventilator but I had an operation to have a phrenic nerve pacemaker put in, which happens to work very well. I have hypersensitivity and also very bad nerve pain and spasms.
I had a motorcycle accident October 2004. Just a little bit too much to drink that night. Anyway I'm glad to have found this web site.
Nice to meet all of you.
