As a quad, for me I believe it's shower days. No other time do I feel as helpless as when I'm getting showered. It's a very quick reminder just how much I can't do/ feel in such a short amount of time. Having to get dressed is a close second.

to be honest, when I wake up because reality hits. In my dreams, I can walk I can use my arms I can do anything and then I wake up and boom, nothing! It's depressing. Holidays are always difficult with everyone at my house and me being useless.

For me, it’s when I wake up and Go about my day and realize all the things that I can’t do how hard it is for me in certain areas of my life compared to the people around me who are able-bodied

Since I've always been disabled, I honestly rarely have any bad part of my day due to my disability , its more other random crappy things..

Yeah I guess I should've specified it would be different if you were disabled the entire time. It does suck have been able-bodied than wrecking and having to take away period. And I would agree waking up and realizing every day that you can't move does suck

Being lonely.
I don’t work bc I’m disabled and sometimes that’s cool bc I can game, play dnd, do art, whatever I feel like. But everyone is gone all the time at work.
When everyone was working from home during the pandemic I was pumped that there were people around.
But I am trying make more friends who share my schedule.

Yesterday, I got a phone call off the hospital saying that I have got bowel cancer! Honestly, I thought breaking my neck was bad, but it hit me like a cannonball! So I am getting on with things, I am sorting myself out of 4x4 electric wheelchair as I want to do a few miles around Worcestershire where I live. Honestly, I am 51 my friends and I’m telling you this enjoy your life when you can. It goes by so quickly.
Pete,
