Chair relief

My caregiver put me back in the old black chair today following the morning ordeal and I've been happy as a clam all day long. Just stressing out with the other chair has made me really appreciate this chair even with all its issues they're not as bad as the ones I just left. My wheelchair guy is coming tomorrow and he's going to do some work on that chair I don't think he can do enough to really make it very useful but we'll see. Maybe part of my problem is the cushion I've got a high profile cushion in that chair and maybe if I just got a lower profile it would help to some degree but even then I would still have issues getting things on and off like shoes and even clothes because I just can't have anything to push against the raise my butt up enough to get my shorts over my hips. But maybe too much information. But for the most part this little chair really meets my needs I really enjoy the elevator function of the other chair and really would deal with a lot of discomfort and issues but I just can't do the day-to-day in that much physical discomfort that chair would render in a long time basis. I think the biggest issue with the chair is that I can't get dressed in it I just don't have the physical ability to use that chair to get dressed like I can these other chairs. I wouldn't mind that chair for a day if I had someone to get me out of the chair at night and if I had someone load me on the chair in the morning like happens when I have a caregiver dress me. But since I don't have caregivers everyday that's not a reality. I have caregivers just 3 days a week. Every time I physically say that I'm amazed at how well I survive I truly blessed and watched over… much more than I deserve. Today I was so excited to be in no pain and fairly mobile that it's even able to do another hour on my arm bike. Yesterday I missed the whole day I just couldn't get myself under the bike in the chair the way I was in sitting in a chair. I'm sorry be going on and on and on about this but you can tell how much a difference the day makes as well as the chair.

I can't believe I'm on the downward slide of the week now the downward slope anyway. Tomorrow's coffee social and I'm not stressed out because I'll be able to get dressed and be somewhat presentable at the function that is if I go. I'm pretty sure I will. It's really one of the closest things to socialization I get.
