Pulling it together
Jan. 21st, 2012 05:49 pmI have two walking boots now and they are helpful. Total immobility does make my ankles hurt less. But it is also really hard to keep them on all the time. And I'm not sure that's the right thing to do.
I am considering schemes of obtaining a free powerchair and maybe asking zond7's neighbors if we could store it in their garage. There isn't anywhere else to put it. There's a back walkway but it would block it too much for the people who live back there. If I paved a bit of the front garden with bricks and locked it with ulocks or something.... but someone would steal it, I think.
I am readjusting a lot of my expectations internally and trying to imagine the short term, medium term, and long term future in various ways depending on how much this improves or doesn't.
Right now I just wish I had better pain drugs and a toilet easier to get up from. I could use a high seat and a handrail really bad .
Both kids are here, it is crowded (one room...) but we are doing okay. we had a great time watching Star Wars Uncut (http://www.starwarsuncut.com/) which is the BEST THING EVER.
