Quadriplegic Version of Feeding Myself

We take the basics of life for granted, until we can't do them anymore. However, getting to perform something like feeding yourself can be helpful.

I take everything for granted but from watching your videos I’ve become more intentional of thanking God for my health, my breath, for having all of my senses, for waking up each day being able to walk. Thank you for sharing and your sense of humor always makes me smile.

It sometimes takes a different perspective, or sudden life change, to realize all the gifts we truly have been given.

Eating popcorn like that is good because you do not need to wait for someone else to do it and I like that about it.

I like what you do to eat popcorn independently and having someone else help you with the cookie but you are still doing it yourself. At our Support Group Meetings there are more Quads there so we had one person Feeding multiple people so they would Feed you and while you are trying to digest it they Feed someone else and then come back to you again of let you get a Drink that they hold up for you. It works but it takes time and you need to wait to get Fed but it is not bad because you are not the only one that they are Feeding there and everyone else is happening it done too.

Getting help always takes longer. That's why I try to start eating first in group settings so that everyone doesn't wait for me to finish.

[@pagzplay]

@@TheQuadLife You are right about that and that is a good idea to start earlier. For us it takes even longer because there are more people there and you are right about not wanting the rest to wait for it to get done.
