Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 A few weeks ago the BIL of a friend of mine fell off his horse and has ended up paralysed from the neck down . They were told there was no hope but thankfully he is now moving one toe and has regained some speech so perhaps there is a glimmer of hope now. Last night I found out that the husband of a girl I used to know (kids in the same class) was knocked off his bike 2 months ago and broke his neck, also ending up paralysed from the neck down . His prognosis is not good. He's a lovely bloke - a teacher with 4 kids. Both are only about 50 . It's just so sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 These things can happen so quickly with life changing results. We really do have to count our blessings and life life to the full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henriette Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 We take our lives and the way we live them so much for granted. Two very sad stories indeed, but maybe a glimmer of hope for the first one and who knows, maybe or the second one too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I'm so sorry, thats terrible. As others have said, life is fragile and we never know whats around the corner. I think it really makes you appreciate your life when things like this happen but then we go back to our usual thing of moaning and groaning (not all the time ). We should count our blessings and live life to the full. I hope things improve for the both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
