Hi, my name is Geminigirl1965!
hi I’m new here..mundane life while I recover from a spinal stroke at T11/T12 and spinal injury at T6 …. Life is boring I am getting stronger but not allowed to do much .. so day to day life is the same … waiting for my car to be adapted so I can at least get some independence back

Welcome, I have spinal damage, if you want chat or ask any questions.
If you have or haven't, I recommend contacting SIA Spinal Injury Association.
Myself I've decided to complete a collection I started at 12yrs old. A new hobby, watch films and series I have always ment to, but never got round to and play games on my game consoles that need more attention or that retro play. Also spare time is great to read a series of books.
I wish Luck and the best for personal journey 😉

hi thank you
Mine was due to an operation on my spine both stroke and spinal injury was no where near the operation, no one is sure how it happened. I had a numb right leg before op due to a disc come out so they was going to refuse all below L2-S1 … I have some movement and I can walk with crutches in the house or with a walker but outside I use a wheelchair. How long you had your spinal problem

Since I was 18, 29yrs ago, not my happiest moment. I was having my 5th cancer treatment at the time. Unfortunately the cancer cells had survived in my spinal fluid.
-
oh god that so bad but I’m so happy that you survived this … onward and upwards your a survivor of all this go you x

😉 Thankyou survivor, unlucky we all just get with what we have. I try to see the best things in life, like watching my Niece's growing up. Life events I would have missed and the insanity. You take Geminigiri
