Being 'wheelchair-bound' is one misconception of living with paralysis.......my wheelchair actually gives me my freedom to be mobile.....everyone else sees my chair more than me, as the majority of the time, I'm looking at anything but my chair - do you spend time looking at the chair you sit on at work, in a restaurant, on the train, in the cinema etc.??????
As for being wheelchair-bound, let me assure you....I do not sleep in my wheelchair, I do not bathe in my wheelchair, I do not drive from my wheelchair (although some people do), James & I do not curl up together on my wheelchair to watch a movie at home.........and there is nothing wheelchair-bound about me when I'm swimming & splashing about with my family at the local leisure centre!
Looking forward to the weekend!........ Xx
