Looking for help is horrifying to think about under better circumstances, or maybe I\u2019m just prone to procrastination and postponement. Either way, there is nothing more gratifying and comfortable than actually getting the help one needs.<\/p>\n
Yesterday we went to Welzorg – a shop for wheelchairs and other such apparatuses. No matter how dire and nasty the reason for a visit to Welzorg is, I always leave feeling excited. What got me excited yesterday was my discovery of the three-wheeled foldable rollator. I walked using the thing for an hour and a half and almost forgot that I had difficulty walking in the first place. I felt like I did three months prior. Talk about stability. I wasn\u2019t tired in the slightest, either. I walked upright, not at all as crooked as I usually walk to maintain balance. I tried three scooters again and found that the one I preferred last time was still the best one. I\u2019ll be getting it this week. If it wasn\u2019t for the weather I would already have gone back into town. With someone by my side, of course, in case we run into someone. It\u2019s called \u201ccoming out\u201d.

New shoes, what a treat. I don\u2019t get as tired anymore, allowing me to do more. The bed gets adjusted today. That should be a huge help for getting dressed and the like. Leaning back should prove much easier now. I feel lucky again. I really am very happy about my shoes. People say they\u2019re reasonably fashionable as well. I\u2019ll take their word for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
