Mastodawn

back from my afternoon out with D!
D and I always have lunch at the garden centre (they do really good gf food for my coeliac arse), and also: plants!
I got a spider plant, a Moroccan mint (for mint tea!) and string of pearls.
It also means Floki got his favourite treats: doggy mini cupcakes. He hounded me for them, as soon as I came through the door. Look at this cuties! (also got myself a treat, the best gf brownie I know that I can only ever get there)
the rollator was also a success, if somewhat cumbersome to get in and out of the boot. I am now gonna not move at all and rest while cuddling with the pup to try and avoid a flare-up since this is the 1st time I've been out since November and I'd rather play it safe.

and having cuddles with the pup before I start getting ready. I'm also going to give the rollator a spin instead of using my cane. It'll be much easier on me re pain if I can sit instead of stand still. also, balance, can't forget better balance!

Hey all. Looking for cane recs/advice because I’m tired of being halfway across a parking lot and wondering if this is the time I actually fully collapse due to sudden weakness/inability to move my legs. I only need it for something to lean on during these bouts, not regular walking, but the bouts are fairly unpredictable so it’ll need to be something I can easily carry with me regularly. I don’t think I want a collapsible one but I could be convinced. I also have had trouble in the past with canes hurting my wrist, so advice on avoiding that is helpful. Also sizing advice? I’m pretty short and all I know is that I think it’s supposed to only come to your hip?

Anyway, please help internet hive mind!! #disability #mobilityAid #NEISVoid

Holy shit I can’t believe I put off trying my prosthetic on for 28 hours after being cleared to attempt

(I mean, I really can, I have anxiety and a lot of FEELS about leggi. It was a lot longer since I got it back too)

but it’s a PERFECT fit ! *and* they refurbed it so well with all new hardware and padding it’s BEAUTIFUL.

I added a few more pins to my rollator
This part doesn’t face outwards so it’s more for me, but I wanted to share.
In spite of our circumstances I am trying to come back to myself.
