- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: January 1980 Yamaha RD200 vs 16 wheeler truck, result, 1 totally paralysed right arm. I was 21, now 54. I had no surgery, I don't regret this. Decided to totally ignore limitations (easily done aged 21) adapted very quickly to one handed life, got married, had 3 kids, worked- the effect of the injury on my life (once the pain stopped being constant) was minimal and now, aged 54, I very rarely even think of it, unless I bash it or it gets cold, then I wish I'd had it amputated :) Except for a steering knob on my car, I have no adaptations to help with life, mainly because I honestly don't think of myself as disabled and the only thing I can't do is peel potatoes, which is definitely a good thing.

Re: happy birthday tbaby
Kath, you might be right, I have a brain like a seive when it comes to birthdays, though I do try and remember Tina's as she always remembers mine! But I remember that when we emigrated to NZ 2 years ago it was the 19th Nov, and I'm sure it was Tina's birthday. Either way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

November 19th, and yes, you were chasing a buttnaked ella round an airport if I remember correctly
THANK YOU ALL!!!! for the birthday wishes On the 19th I was laying by the pool and here comes Johnny with a towel round his waist and bringing me a fresh drink and my lunch right to the pool...............
