Hi everyone...I am new here and couldn't find a place to introduce myself so I thought I'd post here..

Well, my name is Kelley, 33, married, 3 kids. I was in a car accident in '89 and shattered T-10-L3 with an injury spinal injury at T-12 (incomplete). I use the wheelchair full time, however, I can walk very short distances with splints, and a walker.

I have no friends with an SCI so I thought it would be kinda neat to find some to chat with.

I am looking forward to getting to know all of you.

Kelley,

Hello there, I am new to this site as well. I was paralyzed from an automobile accident just over nine years ago; my spinal cord injury is at level C5 C6. I am paralyzed from the chest down and I use the power chair to get around town. A few months ago I turned 29. Just a short introduction to say hi. I look forward to hearing back from you, I hope you have a wonderful new year and I'll talk to you soon.

Much love and God bless,

-Glenn

Hi Kelley,


Interesting story.
