Hey Karen,

I am also new to all of this. I am newly injured this past March
from a fall from a loft. I also feel the same way as you do about
wanting to be involved in more chatting. I have found a great site
on Yahoo. Its in the disabled chat room. Not everyone in there has
suffered a SCI, but there are alot of great people in there. My
level of injury is T-12 L-1 incomplete. I have alot of sensation
and alot of movement in my left leg, but none in the right one. I
have begun walking with braces. Its so hard, but I hope it will get
alot easier when I get stronger. I am 24. How old are u? Hope to
hear from you soon. Keep up the good work.
Alissa
