SCI Forum Schedule
Tuesday, March 11, 2014, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Perspectives on Pain: An SCI Panel Discussion
In this follow-up to our January forum on pain from the health care provider viewpoint, this evening will
focus on the perspectives of four individuals with spinal cord injuries. All have pain related to their injuries and
have found ways to move beyond it, to varying extents, in order to live their lives. A large percentage of people
with SCI have frequent pain that can interfere with daily activities. Finding ways to minimize the pain and, when
necessary, to move forward in spite of pain, can be essential to maintaining quality of life. Our panelists will
discuss their pain experiences, the different treatments they have tried, what has and has not worked for them,
and how they stay positive and carry on with full lives.
5:30 PM - 6:30 PM Meet & Greet: Meet in the hospital cafeteria to socialize, network and eat before heading to the forum. Purchase dinner or bring your own. No RSVP—just show up!
