Great tips! I’m 36 and been in a wheelchair all my life and have never thought of some of these. The seam ripper for the front casters is a brilliant idea! I’ll definitely be purchasing a couple!
Hi, I just found your channel. I hadn't thought of using a seamripper for the hairy casters. I usually pull the caster all the way out, clean and spray lube the bearings, and tighten the caster bolts just tight enough the caster can still spin freely. Usually takes 30 minutes a couple times a year.
As a fellow wheelchair user I have been for the last 10 years now I had to bring in your resume/trail I am only paralyzed on my left side so I don’t want to Use catheters or anything like that thankfullyBut all your other tips were really good thank you!
Well first of all I would like to say that you are very brave & I appreciate seing any1 I’m a wheelchair still living a productive & active life . I’m a left leg AKA n had complications so I was unable to get a prosthetic so I will pretty much be in a wheelchair for a good part of my life And when I had my injury in the beginning I never got said I remain positive but throughout my course of being in this year I see so many wheelchair people they just give up they get depressed and you know I try to tell them that you know there’s lifestyle out there for you just because you’re in that chair don’t give up so I just wanted to say I appreciate the videos and just I appreciate you doing what you do
Thanks for the video! Do you have leg and or foot spasms? My paraplegic friend in high school did and I’ve always been curious if the leg spasms she got were typical for a spinal cord injury or not. She could trigger spasms by siting back in her chair, we could sometimes be helpful for transfers. Anyway, if you could do a video about spasms, that would be very interesting! Thanks!
Great tips going to check in to the home uti tests kits had no idea all this is new to me T12 Asia c incomplete 01-23-20 what are some good support forums looking to meet new friends and learn even more about my situation and new way of life thanks in advance
Glad you found the tips helpful! If you're on Facebook, you could join the Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation and Recovery group! It's a good way to meet new people that are all living with a SCI :)

Thank you!! So easy to follow and practical.
Great tips. I’ve been using the last tip since I started driving. I use a bicycle cup holder and mounted onto the frame of my chair. Very useful.
