day 107 : i've been procrastinating posting a video of my walking. not sure why. . maybe it's because i'm still having a hard time accepting that this is how my body moves now, or maybe it's because i know i've had a tendency to make things sound not as bad as they actually are to those people that are new to learning about spinal cord injuries. . maybe it's because i haven't wanted those people who knew me before this see how sad it is that the person who has made fitness and wellness their life's passion, can barely move one foot in front of the other. maybe it's all those things. . home has been hard. i don't know where to start after being gone for 3.5 months. it's bizarre seeing things and places from before. and i don't have the resources i had at craig. i can't even get around to or reach half the things and spaces in my home. . trying to keep positive and look ahead because i know how lucky i am and how far i've come, but sometimes you have to give a voice to those negative things to acknowledge, validate, and move on, right? #mentalhealth . anyway, i AM proud of this progress, even since leaving for our road trip. left leg still has to come on board and quit giving me a hard time with lifting my foot off the floor, but it'll come! . p.s. - told you the pet bag wasn't going anywhere! #classy . . . headbandsandhightops #spinalcordinjury #extrarepsfortrish #trishstrong #wheelchairlife #oldmanwalker (at South Carolina)
