A good friend of mine died this summer after a torturous year with liver cancer. We both live in the same small town and were similar in being quads and being hurt at 16 back in 1978 for me and 1979 for him. We both survived our yahoo teens and twenties and both became happily married. His name was Wes and I miss having him around. I am getting used to fellow gimper friends passing away and in Wes's case quality of life at the end was shit so I'm OK with him passing. the thing that bothers me is at his funeral service they passed out a hockey card showing him before he got hurt 36 years ago. This able bodied picture of him was not who he was or had been for a very long time. Some how it made him less than who he truly was, not acknowledging what he had since his injury. Does this make sense cause it has been stuck in my craw for the last 3 months. thanx Bruce
