I got my chair back today and it’s working wonderfully. The biggest thing for me right now is that I have never realized how far I have fallen. Meaning, I didn’t realize how unable I am until right now.
I think that I got my custom manual chair in 2015 or 16? I don’t even know, but I was working then but I was not driving. When I got it, it fit me like a glove! I would roll up and down the hallways at my school numerous times a day!
My shoulder got sore wheeling from my living room to my bedroom twice and when I hoisted up on my wheels to try to adjust myself a little better, that hurt my arm even more!
So, it has been a decade since I got my custom manual chair originally but then in 2018, I got a power chair. My body stopped remembering what it felt like sitting in a manual chair even though it was customized to me!
I’ve never really thought about how much worse off my body is now, until now!!! This realization has thrown me for a loop to say the least! But, I’m getting a haircut tomorrow and I’m going to the doctor next week. That will be it for March.
