    • KaraSwims:

      yeah let's just all try to chill out...If you don't enjoy posts from anyone at all-it's pretty easy to ignore them. To be fair an entire thread was created out of dislike for this individual so of course he's going to say something.....at least most would.

      I know we all get frustrated or our buttons pushed different ways but let's not stoop to name-calling and insults-especially those that many with disabilities have heard plenty in their life.

       

       

      This thread is so esoteric I wonder if everyone else understands what's going on.  Someone doesn't like someone and so this?  

       

      Can't the principals to this disagreement find a more private way to work out their gripes with each other?

    • I am rideing a wheelchair due to a run in with a car and the car won. I will not wear an indwelling catheter for several resons. When I have to go to the bathroom I use a three foot lengh of PCV pipeing. It's light and alows me to go right into the tiolet. At night I use a plastic bottle, I live in an apartment and need no help once in bed, unfortunatly alone. In case of an emergency I have lifeline. I refuse to be helpless but I need help getting in and out of bed and showering. I can stand on my right leg, the left side of my body I can't get much use out of. I am going to get some of my tendons in my left foot cut, and it will alow me to stand brefly. Can any one tell me about what to expect?I am worried about the tendon release and yes I asked my Doctor. I have learned not to trust people who are not disabeled because they don't know from first hand experience. What this tendon release means is that I will be abel to get in and out of bed myself includeing being abel to do the rest, almost TomSmile

    • This has to be the weirdest thread ever. But one cool thing did come out of it: I learned that Daisies is an etymology freak like me!

      Ugh...this thread again.

      For those confused..it's a blast from the distant past (look at the dates)...some members involved in the dispute aren't even around anymore. So no need to dig up old dirt! Glad you learned something new though Liesl and Rabbit-I think your post would be an excellent start to your own thread. I want to make sure you get some thoughts and most won't be expecting your question in this thread...if you have questions figuring out how to start your own thread, just let me know.
