Hello, Joe, I guess you were not in a good mood when you typed your
response to Greg See-Kee's message concerning his disability.  Sure
he can walk, and go to the bathroom by himself.  He can watch
television and smell the flowers.  He can go and come as he likes.
But having a major head injury is probably the worse disability.  I
can empathies with Greg as I have a son with a major head injury
and also a friend.  It seems that their brain receives all the
input that their senses can capture, but unfortunatelly, the brain
may not be able to process it rightly.  The output is the most
difficult part.  The worst part it seems, is that they look all
right physically, and no one believes that they have a disability.
I prefer to live with my disability.  I felt like responding to
Greg when I first read his message of complaint, but waited to see
more of his messages.  cheers, REd
