Good Article on Making Babies After SCI

Submitted by Spinal Cord Inj... on Sun, 06/20/2010 - 21:00
Good Article About Making Babies After SCI Pretty good article about a quadriplegic who just had his first child.  I've never read anything from PhillyBurbs.com before but this one has it all... online dating, low sperm counts, a nice title that will be"inspiring" for able-bodied people, and most importantly, a happy ending.  

"People with spinal cord injury-related paralysis can - and do - conceive children. But it can be a long, emotionally difficult and expensive process with no guarantees. Men, more so than women, also can find it harder to achieve biological parenthood."
