Akua--Thank you for the web sites. I had never thought about doing "Wheelies" and how learning the balance of it would help me daily with visiting friends who have no ramps for getting over thresholds. Now I am trying to learn how to do it. freedom, that is what it is all about.
I am going diving for the first time since I lost the use of my legs. I have not even been in the water since the 'event'. I have been a swimmer all my life including waterpolo and pre-olympic tryouts. I didn't qualify but it was fun trying. I have also been a free diver for nearly 30 years and really miss the ocean and all it's wonders. How do I keep my legs from dragging on the bottom? I'm sure I can swim and maneuver while I hunt fish if I can control my legs. How do I get into the water and worse, how do I get out? I am a big man. We think (my family) we have figured it all out and I will soon make the attempt. Hopefully the next blog will be a tale of my success in entering Jules Verne's undersea kingdom.
