Laurie! It’s ok to plan and not accomplish what you set out to do!
The fact that you do inspire to get beyond the wheelchair means you have not given up hope! Trite but true…tomorrow IS another day; an opportunity for a fresh start. And another day stronger! The end goal was ultimately lunch and you achieved that!! ☺️ I’m glad it was good!

Your body has gone through a lot of trauma the past few months and it’s taken it’s toll…sapped your energy and left you drained.
I’ve had my share of days like that, when my only goal was standing for 30 seconds unassisted (though a gait belt was around my waist, just in case) I know sympathy is the last thing you want but do accept the empathy and commiseration we all feel for you as you keep giving it your all to persevere!
Fondly, Lori 😘

@loribmt Hello again Lori. You always know the right thing to say, dear friend. Thankyou for your message. I commend you for all that you've been through, and I sure do remember the gait belt and the 30 second stand-up goal too.
Today I feel like my "get up and go got up and went". A bit down and defeated, I gotta' say. I know that many of us here have been there before and I can and will beat it again! I know I'll be a new person with a new goal tomorrow, or, ...er, maybe the next day. Lol
Fondly back atcha! Laurie
