Crikey. I'm seriously impressed by your outlook on this situation. You often hear stories of inspirational people overcoming adversity and life changing accidents to continue doing what they love someway, somehow. I can't see you hiding away and feeling sorry for yourself, I can see you being the next inspirational story someone hears about though! Hang in there, everyone's rooting for you Sean...

To me it's a no brainier. Of course there are days where I feel sorry for myself, get angry and ask why?? But I owe it not to just myself but to my wife and children. What sort of example will I be setting the children if I just crumble? Allow myself to wither and give up. I need to remain strong for the family. To show the children that people with disabilities have as much to offer society as able bodied people. I need to show them that whatever happens they have the strength to overcome anything that is thrown their way. With the help of family and friends they can achieve anything they want. That obstacles will be placed in front of them and they will be better people having confronted and overcome them.

I have much I want to do especially regarding trees and my photography. I see this as an opportunity for me to do so much. I know these are just words at this stage and it is going to be bloody hard but I am 46 and have years ahead of me to achieve so much. There are many people in far worse situations than me who have achieved so much, truly inspirational people. Anyway I would never be allowed to crumble. My family and friends wouldn't have it!!

 

Here's a photo I took of an old Ash Pollard that sums up my mood right now
