#ReeveSeeUs | "I became a C5/6 complete quadriplegic after a fall from a swing. My two oldest boys were with me. When I yelled for help, my husband immediately sprang into action and from that moment forward our lives were completely changed. The further away we get from the accident, the more we realize we are still like any other family with boys. Yes things are harder for us and take a lot more time and patience. But we always talk about teamwork and balance our parenting duties extremely well. The challenges we have would still exist with or without the injury. My hope is that individuals with disabilities don't have to fight so hard for help with personal care. One of the things that can help a marriage succeed is the faster you take caretaking from the spouse, the higher the likelihood the couple can begin their new normal." - powerednalaska
