Re: OT: The Things We Take for Granted....
When I broke my leg I realized that I took walking for granted. Moving around on crutches was very slow and inconvenient. I couldn't go up or down stairs and I couldn't walk on to or off the sidewalk because of the little step, so I had to always look for a ramp. Everyday activities like taking a shower, getting dressed, and shopping were painful and very difficult. It took many months for me to get back to normal. But when I think of people in wheelchairs, I realize that what I experienced was nothing compared to them.
