Touche. I meant no disrespect. I'm not great with words.

I was also born with Spina Bifida, among a few other defects. Net result was a tethered cord; malformed vertebrae at the base of my back had pinched my spinal cord and the growth of my body was causing tension on my cord and the stem of my brain. I was always cold, had terrible headaches. I was fortunate enough to get into Sick Children's Hospital in Toronto. I roomed with a kid who was not as lucky as I was and he was in a wheel chair, like I would have been in about a year's time if not for the surgeries. I think about him sometimes, and how close I was to a wheelchair myself. This just reminded me of all of it.
