ha ha. my disability check did not arrive on the 9th as promised by our government. i have not checked my mail since that day, so its prolly sitting in my malbox right now.
i really don't have anything to blog about. let me tell you a lil stoey from my rehab stay.
ok, when i first starting using the toilet on my own, they insisted on some supervision. i was not standing up from a sitting position very well, and also cleaning myself without falling off was tricky at best.
any i thought nothing could be more humbling at 45ish years old than a young 20ish very pretty lady(therapist) wiping my ass. theeen a day or two latre i learned i was wrong when a 30ish might be gay, certainly not pretty man(nurse) wiped my ass for me.
these days i manage on my own.
think about it. im right handed, so when it comes timefor the wipe. i tend to lift up my right side a bit. no big deal right. well my left side is paralyzed, which supports all my weight on the commode while im 'lifting'. i had to retrain myself to lift in an alternate manner. i've said too much on the mattre, i'm sure, so ill stop there.
poker is still going fairly well, altho i'm still wanting a new comp and desk.
peace

It amazing how a little aha moment (male nurse) can totally change your perspective!
Maybe you should look into a beday (spell?) then no more wiping!!
Poker....online? or are you sneaking off to vegas
you spelt it wrong,but the french really dont spell all that well any hoo, now do they.
was that mean to say. i dont mean they caint spell, i mean their words are spelt funny.
we had a beday when i was in italy, we used it as a planter.
oh and before i knew what it was, i was looking right at it when i turned the handle. i decided my original thought of his and hers toilets was not correct,altho i was close.
i suppose i could look up how to spell that word 'beday', but ur the teacher... u look it up.
:)
I teach dyslexic how to read ENGLISH not French. You were in Italy you should know how to spell it!
A PLANTER! Well I guess you never have to worry about watering the plants! you crack me up
Smart Doctors you had, they knew you would never wipe yourself if that 20yr old kept doing it. So they sent in the closer.
well i never pooped again while Bill was on duty. and i made sure to take notice of who would be aiding me when i couldn't hold it any longer.
there was one nice lady very concerned about me getting a rash... i liked her.
