jeshyrPart of what's hard about getting this sick for the second time is that every time I go through getting new assistive technology or using a new way of doing things, it's something I've done before. It feels like having to deal with two sets of emotions - the set that's happening now but also in a way the set that I went through in the early 2000's when this happened.
[This image is a graph of my approximate health levels from the 1990's to today, it basically goes downwards except in four spots. Three of them are very brief upticks that lasted less than a year, and they're from when I did inpatient rehab where all the gains evaporated as soon as I was discharged. The fourth is the big uptick I got from my new medications in 2010 which gave me the last several years of less-bad health, that's the one that's being lost now.]
This post is brought to you by the fact that today I’m looking at buying a trolley to go beside my day bed. I have a table there now but it’s hard to move a table and I’m at a level now where I can’t always get up and shift around if somebody needs to do something with my left side where the table is.
