Hello friends, as you know there isn't many major networks television show dedicated to SCI. We don't always have SCI producers either. I know we all still have a purpose here and I feel mine is using my passions to help others. I have produced a TV show in NJ for a few years now, thanks to the help of The Christopher Reeve Foundation and The National Spinal Cord Injury Association among many other list of friends so long sorry I can't list you all. Partnerships and supporting each other is how we will break barriers. The internet is a great way of coming together and sharing information. I uploaded shows about our lives and things involved with it. If you have any questions, please ask.

Interesting show, great way of showing able-bodied people what our lives are like. Also, since I don't really have any friends in town who have SCIs, it's great to be able to see other people with SCIs living life.
Then will the lame leap like a deer, and the mute tongue shout for joy. Water will gush forth in the wilderness and streams in the desert. Isaiah 35: 5-6

That's awesome. If you're interested in doing a story about spinal cord injury and scuba diving, I have lots of footage of myself diving (well, the underwater videographer who is filming for a documentary I'm working on has the footage, lol) and we'd be happy to provide you with clips. Photographs are up on my blog (link below).

Thanks for the show Proffesir X.

I believe that the Life Rolls On organization is a great thing. I hope to be able to participate in one of their "They Will Surf Again" days next year. You know, our very own member "Santa Cruz Soul Surfer" is a part of that organization.

The segment on a person's daily life with SCI could be very helpful to the AB community. My family and friends really had no idea of the full affects of SCI until I told them or they witnessed some of my problems. The vast majority of people believe that the only problem that a person with a spinal cord injury has is the inability to walk. Walking is low on my wish list of recovery, definitly behind bowel and bladder function and the elimination of severe nerve pain. I think it would be great to have a segment on each show about a SCI person's daily life, from a high level quad to a lower level para.

I also enjoyed your music videos. It's great that you are giving Dr. Wise Young recognition for all of the work he is doing in trying to make our lives better.

I am friends with Proffesir X on facebook and he gives interesting status updates throughout the day including links to his ongoing projects and other news concerning the SCI community. I'll not give out his profile page, I'll leave that up to him.

Thanks Proffesir X and keep up the good work!!

Sure, can you send a finished product, I can add to the show. Plus written consent, you give me permission to use video and you're responsible for it's content.

I'm so glad the motivation and opening up to each other and education about our lives is coming together. I hear you when people think SCI just means can't walk and it's just not that.

Thanks for the message and complinents. keep in touch.
