I’m currently mostly wheelchair bound, but can transfer by myself. I use a transfer board to get onto a shower chair, although I used to be able to use my walker and just step over the edge of the tub, sit on the seat and drag my right leg over. I’ve had some bouts of illness, I’m very susceptible to pneumonia. It’s tough to get back into walking when you’v been sitting so much. I’m doing exercises and plan to start physical therapy again next week. My goal is to be able to walk with my walker again to gain some independence. My husband is also in a wheelchair, but he has been a paraplegic since 1978. He gets my travel chair in and out of the van using a hoist. He is currently my caregiver.
