Survival as a quadriplegic

What is the longest survival you have heard of for a quadriplegic?  I have
seen a case previously of a 21 year survival, but recently came across a
case as a result of my research of a 37 year survival period.  This to me
seems to be extremely unusual, but I was wondering what some of the more
experienced members of the list make of a survival such as this.
