@ghost i am trying to get a new wheelchair, that is a lot narrower. the fenders will then hold my body in position, without them i couldn't use that small seat size, but it's so amazing. when it's tight like that you can actually steer with your butt, i really hope i can convince my insurance to give me a new chair

@ghost thank you! Yes they are very helpful, they keep my clothes from getting into the spokes and help to keep stuff on my lap. I often have a bag or groceries on my lap and this way they don't fall down so much.
I still somehow manage to get my clothes, especially zippers, into the spokes going clank clank clank 🙄 I don't want to imagine how often that would happen without fenders

Also I am currently avoiding too get up because I'm in level 8/10 pain but as soon as I get up to get pain meds I will be in level 9-10/10 pain.
But, if I wait for too long this will happen on its own as well... Can't win

I loathe this wheelchair

Had time today to take a good selfie with my crappy chair.

Description: A selfie through a mirror. I am a light skinned, medium build white person with short green hair. I am wearing blue trousers, a blue jacket and a blue scarf. I am sitting in a black and white manual wheelchair. I am wearing silver shoes and am taking the picture with a phone that has a golden cover. In the background you can see a medical office's waiting area.

@squirrel omg :(((

@squirrel that happened to me once, so damn scary :(

@Firstaide best wishes!

@Firstaide yeah i can still type with mine!

@Firstaide i like using them when my hands need some rest, but i don't want them to be completely incapacitated OR freezing to death

@Firstaide they keep warm, and due to the compression may also help a bit with pain. they are firmer & give more stability than regular gloves

@Firstaide i love compression gloves

@AndyC woudl totally do, unfortunately i'm allergic against everything that contains alcohol :)))) my life is miserable. i do have 2 very soft cats tho

@AndyC haha no not really, but it's ok i don't need you to give me advice, i'm just whining :)

@AndyC wow. i brought away 1 package and bought some food. now i'm in pain and exhausted but it was worth it. i really hate my wheelchair, it's the most uncomfortable thing ever

i'm also in pain but that's kinda normal.
it worries me that lately, i've been using my cane inside a lot.

that means the whole "accessible apartment" thing is kind of getting urgent with no solution in sight 😐

today i went Outside and i got a lot of food that isn't poison. it was very expensive but for the first time in days my stomach is HAPPY. so, starvation has been averted once more!

@AndyC accomplished. very good adulting today. and you?

@Firstaide ugh i hate that when you want to rest limbs and they just FREEZE. it's s hard to keep them warm
