    This gives me hope as my spine is messed up and EDS may cause me to not be able to walk one day knowing this is terrifying but seeing people like him give me hope that even if that is my future I still do the things I love one way or another.

    You should watch some of the videos of a guy named "wheels." He was on AGT and is an amazing athlete.

    We are in a recession. It is very vulnerable to a depression.. Most of us have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, we are finding it impossible to replace it. My condolences to anyone like myself retiring in this crisis, it gets tougher by the day.

      As a fellow retiree lI totally feel your pain, l'd
      suggest you look into passive index fund
      investing and learn some more. You should have
      looked into earning passive income years ago; its
      still never too late to get started. For me I hired
      an expert advisor for assistance, and following
      her advice.

      I poured $50k in passive diversified
      safe-haven assets and its yielded $175k so far.
      Nothing special, just proper diversification and a
      cut loss and take profit strategy

      I think it's especially difficult for
      retirees and near retirees, I know to focus on the
      long term but the anxiety when you're supposed
      to be retiring in 3-5 years is exhausting. I wouldn't
      mind looking up your advisor please, I've been
      looking into hiring one as welI.

    Quadriplegic mean arms don't work either

      Depending on the level of the injury. His was a C5 injury. We have 7 cervical vertebrae. If his injury had been on the 1st or 2nd, the damage would have been catastrophic and he might lack arm movement then.

    Life can change in a moment , my dad was 10 and his cousin pushed him off a ledge and my dad broke his neck and was in a full body cast for 9 months and thanks god everyday he is able to walk , his cousin and him are still best friends but we never ever ever ever ever ever talk about what happened. Life can change in an instant . My mom always said “live life like there’s no tomorrow “,which kudos to my mom for saving my dads life also when I was 12 ,my dad choked on pizza crust and my mom (they were divorced and HATED each other ) literally saved his life with the Heimlich maneuver. God bless ❤️🔆🤍
