Last Friday a classmate from CCA gave me a very generous offer. She had broken her foot at the beginning of the semester and rented a wheelchair for the whole month, after the first week she no longer needed it but still had it around so she offered to let me use it for my research! At school this afternoon I made the transition from walking to wheeling, and after only a few hours I have met quite a few surprises.
Initial Reaction:
Goals:
1. only use my legs for the bathroom, driving and getting into my apartment (stairs).
2. resist the urge to break character, especially when things get difficult
3. use the chair for 5 days or more
