My brother had an accident on the Judo mat while he was on his regular practice on the 19th of this month. X-ray reports show that c5 and c6 have moved away from one another. He is parallized from neck to toe, however senses are there upto his belly. He has been fixed him with bed with 12 Kg contraction and is still not out of danger.
I am repeating this question with a hope that it will fall infront of someone who would be able to help.

What is the best Spinal Cord Injury website?




Today is the 3yr anniversary of my brother’s SCI and his 21st birthday. He passed away of complications relating to the injury on Jan. 24th of this year. I really want to get involved by becoming an advocate for SCI research and speeding up the research process. Everyone says we’re so close but it wasn’t close enough my brother. What can I do to get involved? I need to be Paul’s voice.

Anyone know limitations on driving after a DWI?




My younger brother got a DWI and served his one year suspension. He now has a ignition interlock device installed on his car. Is he permitted to drive all vehicles or just the car that its installed on. Reason I ask is we own a company and I have my concerns about him being pulled over in a company vehicle. We are in NC, thanks!

My brother is a Alcoholic, he has been sober for ten years. He was as bad as it gets. He had 5 DWI’s. 10 sober years later, he found a good job that he can walk to work, he volunteers on weekends and helps countless people. As you can imagine, with the 5 DWI’s there were many fines and penalties. He turned himself into the police , and payed all his fines. (just because it was the right thing to do) Now the judge not only took his license away for 20 years ( which is what we all expected) but sentenced him to 6 months in jail. Were he will obviously lose his job, and have to start from scratch. Lawyers aren’t much help because it is all mandatory. Anyone have any similar situations.

My brother (23), fell down a flight of stairs- because they were broken- last christmas.He hasn’t been able to move off his bed since. He’s suing the landlord, and the lawyer is asking for a list of his personal losses.. emotional, physical, monetary, ect. We’re come up with most of the obvious stuff(unable to work, travel, hang out, go to school, ect), but we know the list isn’t complete.. does anyone have any suggestions?

I am 23 years old, and am concerned that if something happens to my mom custody of my six-year old brother would go to her abusive/alcoholic ex-husband. Can she write a valid will at home to give me custody just in case? Her ex-husb. has a long criminal record incl. repeat DUI, DWI, Drunk in Public, and Possession charges, so maybe I don’t need to even worry, because a court would see that he is unfit. I work full-time, have my own car, and make enough to support my brother & I, so I like to think I could get custody. Still, I want to know how I can get a will for her done, we don’t have the money for a lawyer….Thanks!

Dwi court fees?




I have a friend whose brother doesn’t want to go to court because he is afraid he will get stuck in jail if he doesn’t have the money for the court fees. I’m trying to tell them it’s going to be worse if he doesn’t go. He was pulled over for a DWI and hasn’t seen a lawyer so I guess he’s going to represent himself. Does anyone know what would be the cost of court fees for a DWI in NC?
Thanks!
Harry I totally agree. I’m just concerned because she’s so worried….but anyway…please don’t post stupid or rude remarks. I didn’t ask for comments I asked for answers. thanks!
