day 508 : be. still. my. . . i’m usually a bit of a (ok, maybe more than a bit?). i’m pretty grinch-y during the holidays, and thanksgiving is just ughhhhvdjskxnrkdjdjd…. . but i’ve found myself feeling an unexpected wave of gratitude the last few days for the short list of things going well right now. . i forgot my cane and parking tag galavanting through the carolinas yesterday. bless @timberland boots for allowing this paraplegic to feel confident over most terrain, especially big gravel like the kind i ate it on about a year and a half ago lol. #walkingparaplegic . i also walked up that big hill in the background, and felt really good about it?!?! . i’m thankful for this sunshine of a man that was a bright light at a very dark time in my life. thanks for being stubborn when i was pushing you away . thankful for two loving parents that came to me when traveling was just too much for me this year. . thankful for the best pup pup that could ever happen to a person with sci. or any person. lucy, i dont know what i’d do without your dragon noises and cute zoomies every day. . also the fact that you’re an obstacle course because you refuse to move from taking up the entire hallway every time i walk by. my dog is daily physical therapy. . in the past few weeks, something has happened to my legs. i got up from a regular height chair with no hands yesterday. also a low-ish toilet. . and about two weeks ago, the top half of my left leg like, came back. sort of like it walked back in from vacation and was like, “what’s up?” it’s the weirdest thing ever. . anyway, i don’t like wine, but i drank wine. and i’m getting better at drinking and walking. . . . #spinalcordinjury #scirecovery #timberlandboots #paraplegic #incompleteparaplegic #thecomebackisgreaterthanthesetback #whatparalysis #moveyourbody #depression #mentalhealthawareness #endthestigma #movember #moustache #ambulatorywheelchairusersexist https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqko4V3hkwb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ghnaej9xvicb -- source link
