I hate that I cant physically look up to him

Just had to mention an alternative perspective... I'm pretty excited that the new man I am interested in is a wheelchair user because finally I WON'T have to look up to see the man I am with... my neck is so bad that I can't extend it (look up), so it leaves me staring at the ground when strolling with people on their feet.

I hate the fact that I'm now going to be in a chair full time & all the (SO CALLED) friends I once had.

On the up side I now know who my true friends are...

but most of all...
having brainfarts when you think you thought you might of had something to say or do then find yourself sitting there thinking, for 20 wasted minutes, "What was it I was going to...?" Then after going on through the day later finally remeber that it was that Dr's appointment an hour ago or you just leave the room, get into something else, then remember and have to quit whatever to go back n do what you had to in the 1st place. THEN get back to there n forget all over again (that's called a double bubble brainfart). Could be the early onset of Alzheimer's or Dementia...or maybe, just maybe, it could be the medications Posted Image, lol.


A big ditto, gustifer! Used to work construction - assholes and elbows, blowin' and goin' - all that jazz. Now - like you said - I'll roll into the front room, look around, and ... duh. The time. Goddam time loss. I think that's my toughest hurdle. It's hard to go slow.

I've been taught not to hate


So, I dislike...

that I share most of everyone else's dislikes
that we can't kiss standing up
that i do everything all by myself with very little help
that i cant get him to his drs appointments because i have work
that he is always in pain and not able to get better drugs or whatever to get relief from all the pain
that he has blood clots in his legs
that we have not had sex in over a year
that my mans brother, wife and their 5 kids don't help me more like they should
that i have not had 10 minutes to myself since the accident
that i have to get up 3 hours before I have to be at work to take care of my man and my children
that we dont get to lay in bed anymore together
that his brother, his wife, and their 5 kids have to stay with us
this website is so addictive that i check this site more than i check my mailbox at home
that i have no friends and live far from my family
that i get frustrated sometimes and want to get awayi but cant
that i have these feeling
that i am being negtive and i know that i need to be more positive and seek the Lord
that i am tired and want to go to sleep but i cant
that people just stare at us when we are out...but I kiss him very passionately when I think they are really looking
that people think i am this great saint for what i'm doing for Vernon, wtf!
that peolple say how good i am and they say that there heart pours out to me and family BUT NONE OF THEM EVER ASK TO HELP DO SOMETHING TO GIVE ME A DAMN BREAK
that people always ask, Do you need anything...knowing the f--- that i do.
that i have to stop because i keep finding more and more thing to dislike..................

I hate complaining! Despite my accident, my injury, and the hard work of my ongoing recovery, my life is still pretty good. I have many, many things to be thankful for. Thus, I hate feeling guilty that I'm complaining when there are others who have it far worse than me. Notwithstanding, my life is far more inconvenient than it was prior to my SCI and although I am managing, it is not as it once was.

So I do feel somewhat justified by my grumble which is that I hate that if I am in my wheelchair out and about in my community (for which I still occasionally use my WC), I am at the exact right height to breathe in the cigarette smoke of an AB individual walking around and holding their cigarette.

I live in a hilly community so if I am walking behind a smoker, it takes some effort to wheel uphill and overtake them to dodge the poisonous cloud of their cigarette smoke.

I hate it, hate it, hate it. I hate it!

Sorry smokers but it's disgusting. It gets in your hair and into your skin and in the fibres of the material your clothes are made of and it makes your skin grey and your lungs look like burnt steak...and it often kills you slowly and painfully.

I hate that I can no longer dodge around a smoker. Blahgth, blahgth, blahgth.

that we dont communicate and frankly i really dont care anymore
that i am ready for his brother familyto move the hell outta my house but I gave them weeks (1 more week to go)

I hate the Fact that people judge me because i am obese and in a wheelchair, thinking that i am too lazy to walk.

I hate when I am around some para's and quad's that i get attitude from them because i have limited use of my legs.

I hate Doctors telling me to "tough" it out, or suck it up.

I hate the fact that when i meet new people they always act as though i am mentally challenged or stupid.

I hate the fact that when i get upset, i can't talk about it.

I hate the fact that just taking a dump takes 2 hours!

I hate that there are no treatments and no cures.
I hate that there is no SCI awareness month like there is for breast cancerand that we don't have the same kind of support.
I hate that we don't have a colored ribbon that represents the people living with SCI
I hate that our president is against stem cell research.
I hate that SCI is an injury that we can not recover from, that for most of us we don't get better and have little hope of recovery.
I hate that I see the glass 1/2 empty and not 1/2 full.

I wish ................. for so many things

Hmmm. Perfect night for a bitchfest.

-I cry when I remember I'm not able to dance, cycle, or row anymore.
-I dislike having to tell people I have a spinal cord injury because they have no clue what the cauda equina is and I don't have the time for an anatomy lesson.
-I get angry at other gimpy folk because they assume that my life isn't that hard comparatively.
-I dislike cold weather making my legs hurt more, but somehow they get clammy under my braces?
-I dislike insurance companies, full stop.
-I get frustrated when none of my old (and truly awesome) wardrobe fits me.
-I'm sad because of how broke I am now.
-I freaked out tonight when my cat got out of the house and there wasn't anything I could do.
-I miss feeling comfortable with my body.
-I dislike when my mom and my family figure that I'll be fine if I keep working at it.
-I cried (later) when my aunt told me that she felt bad for me.
-I wish that my body would sleep for more than three or four hours in a go.
-I dislike feeling so much frustration with my life.
I am a palm tree - I bend, but do not break, in the winds and storms.
