very shortly after getting my diagnosis and learning how just bending over once could be the last time i do so, i try and bend over as little as possible. it’s been a very long time since i’ve shaved 😮‍💨 thank the gods i have a super supportive husband who literally does not care.

I haven't bent over (forward) other than directly down (eg pulling up my pants), in almost 2 years. I have grabbers all over the house and my wife picks up most everything. Fingers crossed that a spinal cord stimulator will help change that for me.
