I have a 15 year old daughter with spina bifida. I'd be more than happy to answer any queries you have, if I'm able to.
Like John I was a teenager at the time of my accident. I was 14 and recently turned 32.
I have a 6 year old who suffered a cord compression at 5 months old.
Good to hear from another parent!

Hi. I have a grand daughter who is just 23 months old who is a quad. She was injured 4 months ago in a MVA. I don't know how much I can help but would be glad to offer an ear anytime. Sometimes we just need to vent boy can I attest to that one. There have been plenty of people here who have helped me time and time again. They will never know how appreciative I am to all of them! Like I said anytime you need to just talk I am here......Theresa
When I was 7 I was in an accident that left me paralyzed. I'm now 18. If you want, ask away. I'll do the best I can or ask my mom since she -is- the parent.
