As I sit in the hospital room right now, I completely get the medical struggles of infection and wound care.

    Don’t give up fighting for your health! I know it sucks but eventually you will find a great doctor. I FINALLY got the care I needed last week. Specialist gave me an IV drug that’s $3,000. 😳 (I’m in Canada so it was covered) It’s 1 dose that is equivalent of two weeks of vancomycin. I was so happy not to have to be hooked up for a week. I was not looking forward to a picc. Anyway, just wanted to share some good news!

My last video climbing around at that roadcut almost killed me lol. So super important for you Brian since you have to help Nicolette and climb and get what she spots but can't reach ya know.

    Getting out is good for the soul and our health. I'm on week 3 with my sore. It sucks for sure. Its hard to find good wound care doctors who are also familiar with SCI. I'm sad the clinic was so non helpful, especially to not even have a dr there! Pretty rude of them. My dr started me on Iodosorb gel with Maxorb II Alginate wound dressing. Keeping fingers crossed it helps. Mine is a stage 3 at 3mm in depth. Quick healing wishes to us all. Hugs.

    Hey y’all have you ever tried a ROHO seat for your wheelchair? My daughter uses them and they do help. I am just not sure if it will fit with your chair Nicholette. My daughter uses a power chair but even her manual chair has them but she has to have someone push her because her weakness is all over. I think I told you before that she has SMA or Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
    I love to see your videos! Y’all are so cute together and I just wish the best for y’all 💛❤️🍯🐝
