Dear Northwest Regional Spinal Cord Injury System Subscribers,   The SCI Forum presentation “Travel after Spinal Cord Injury: Finding Your Comfort Zone,” which took place on March 8, 2011 at the University of Washington Medical Center, is now available for viewing on our website at http://sci.washington.edu/info/forums/reports/travel_2011.asp   Are you interested in travel but not sure how to manage with a spinal cord injury? Whether your goal is to vacation in France, go to Disneyland or visit family across the country, it is still possible to travel and have a great time doing it. In this video, several individuals with spinal cord injuries share their wisdom and lessons learned about traveling domestically and abroad. A travel agent who specializes in clients with disabilities and also has tetraplegia (quadriplegia) discusses trip planning and know-before-you-go essentials. Whether by land, air or sea, there are more travel options available for individuals with spinal cord injury than ever before. Watch this video for encouragement, inspiration, and practical information about traveling with SCI.   Please give us your feedback after watching the video.
