Thanks everyone for the welcome.
Also for the compliments on the pics. :blushing02: "juls and Mary"
Even though it looks like im popular with the ladies its really the opposite. I have girls that are friends but, no more than just friends. Which kinda gets me down sometimes.
Anyways thanks again everyone.

Hi Josh,

You say you're a C1, yet from your picture it looks like you can push yourself. Are you able to get around on your own? I don't what I'm asking this, just your picture doesn't seem like you would be that high of an injury.

Either way, what up dog?

Hey, whats going on Adam? Yea my injury is pretty high being C1,2,4 and 5 and a few others in T. I get around good in my manual, tough on inclines though. Your not the only one surprised about my movement. I myself am surprised, knowing other quads and such. When I was first injured, the morning after I was able to move everything as I layed in the hospital bed. Slowly it went until I couldnt move anything from the neck down.
Im doing pretty well for myself now, I guess. Hope that cleared things a little, if not let me know? I'll be glad to share more of my injury. Thanks

Later

Don't worry about not getting the ladies yet. With more experience you'll get better at that. I know that's easier said than done becasue you want em now, I remember that.
I got hurt when I was young too so if you need any advice, ask away. One of us here will surely be able to help.
