Home life IMHO is the biggest challenge, when things go wrong in people's life 
*some* not all people run for the hills. They find it easer just not to deal 
with it, some take bad news fine. I'm glad your support took the news fine.

Dancing eh.. sweet. I bet you had the moves eh.. Hubahuba  :)

What do I mean??? YOU still DO!

 > learn to just shake off the 'agitia', that people run into

Sure.. attitude works well, but it's not worth a bag of beans if your support 
don't care, then it's up to the person to make a life for him/her self.

I broke my neck in the early 80's C3 fracture. SCI (Spinal cord injury) MVA 
(motor vehicle accident) motorcycle accident.. It's wasn't a walk in the park,
thats for sure, but I was always pretty independent, so I've made it over 20+
years now in my bucket (wheel chair) I have my own town house, live alone, 
financially stable, and hansom. 

chat soon..
