They even want straps on my arms and legs and a black bag over my head. ]]> https://wheellove.ca/unapologetically-wheel-love/#comment-10666 Wed, 03 Oct 2018 21:20:04 +0000 https://wheellove.ca/?p=928#comment-10666 Congrats Kendra!!

You have been so helpful to me and my SCI husband. While his injury and level of independence is different from that of your wheel loves’, and our day to day challenges are somewhat different, there is so much that we have in common. I can relate to so many of your experiences. Your blog has normalized a lot of my feelings. You have provided insight and practical tips that have helped me so much. Please keep pushing on and sharing with us.
All the best, Belinda ]]> https://wheellove.ca/unapologetically-wheel-love/#comment-10567 Wed, 26 Sep 2018 18:45:00 +0000 https://wheellove.ca/?p=928#comment-10567 Haha, yes!! Thanks, Aaron!! ]]> https://wheellove.ca/unapologetically-wheel-love/#comment-10555 Tue, 25 Sep 2018 21:06:41 +0000 https://wheellove.ca/?p=928#comment-10555 Don’t apologize – fuck ’em!
I’m a wheelchair user and I find your perspective to be helpful. Sadly there are so many people who think they know how everything in the world works yet they have zero ability to empathize with another person whose situation may be different from their own. Thank you for posting these – I look forward to the next! ]]> https://wheellove.ca/unapologetically-wheel-love/#comment-10551 Tue, 25 Sep 2018 12:15:16 +0000 https://wheellove.ca/?p=928#comment-10551 When my Wheel Love came into my life and turned it upside down (I had never known anyone with an SCI before my partner) it was the most amazing positive and challenging time of my life. I’m a quick learner and it was a good job! We share so much love and intimacy, I am not his ‘carer but I do care for him. He has had a lot of health problems in the last couple pf years but we worked through them and made decisions together. You have to laugh a lot (I have laughed more since I met my partner less than 5 years ago than I did in all the years before he came into my life – I’m no spring chicken so that’s a lotta years!) Yes it’s frustratingly hard and soul destroying some days but only some days. Most days are magnificent. I’ve learned to be patient, less selfish and how to love completely. I am no longer living a half life. My life with my T6/7 Para partner is fulfilling and complete. ]]>
