    If you knew you were going to have to live completely paralysed and that your mind would be fully functional, what job would you chose?

    Of course, you might need some assistance: a machine to breathe, talk or move with for instance. But with an active mind and gross physical limitation, what job or work would you like to be able to do to make a living?

    I'd tell stories.... with help, of course....... woe to the person hired to take care of me......

    I have books already written and a vivid imagination and so I would become a writer... I would have all the time in the world for that and the up side would be that someone else would have to clean my house!  Woot!

    Anything I  wanted ! except maybe physical work. A phrase that I embrace is "Don't Diss my ability"

    Love it!

    There was a wonderful book written by a paralysed man, Jean- Dominique Bauby called 'Le Scaphandre et le Papillon'. ( The Diving Bell and the Butterfly). It may be out as a film.

    Radio weatherman. I could screw up half the time and still get to keep my job.

    I would want to be a motivational speaker if I had any ability through computers to speak at all.

    A preacher

    If given the oppourtunity to chose any career, I could do anything with a healthy mind , there is always ways to overcome barriers. I think I would like to be an astraunaut, be weightless.

    What a delight to see such positive approaches.
