100% Britt agree with you when it comes to finding friends that are in wheelchairs. It’s enriched my life so much in the last 2.5 years to where I’d never look back. I encourage anyone with any kind o& disability to find peers that you can relate to, it makes life so much better.

Happy Holidays!

First time you brought up Peeing Anywhere, it seemed a lil odd. But once you explained why and how, now it just makes perfect sense. It is NOT gross, it seems perfectly natural. And since so many places can't seem to get on board on making their bathrooms truly accessible, and more places now have put up signs saying "not a public bathroom", your method seems all the better. Your core strength seems to be getting stronger. And we think having more freedom is great!

You have nothing to apologize for… I hope you have a nice Christmas….

Peeing in the car is the best, I'm sitting on a Roho cushion, toilet seats are hard. Run seat all the way back, tilt back a ways and the rest is easy peasy lemon squeezey.😂

Merry Christmas from Ontario pretty Lady.

Wow, I can't believe you're still driving the rental vehicle. I thought your van was only supposed to be in the shop after the accident for 30-some days. Hope you're enjoying that Terrain though... my Mom has one exactly the same and loves it. In regards to the porch lift, I have one of those at the front of my house too, that I brought over from my old house where I moved from, a couple months ago and it has had a few glitches as well. I have yet to try it out again since my Dad welded a new piece on the little ramp/gate mechanism. I also have a ramp too as this is the house I grew up in since I was 17. Anyways, I'm so glad you got to get out and have a great time with your "wheely peeps". I would love to find some local friends who have physical disabilities like I do, here in Northern Ontario.

We weren’t expecting a video so close to Christmas, so a Special Thank You! You’re still using a Rental SUV?? That sucks. I freak out every time I lose/misplace my iPhone - you are much calmer and trusting than me. Using a catheter isn’t fun, but not having to look for an accessible clean bathroom, makes things a lil better. Sort of. That’s a lot of pee. OMG - a broken lift - you are so calm. It is wonderful that you have great neighbours! And that Santa Hat looks great on you - I gotta go look for my “very appealing” Reindeer Antlers. Merry Christmas Brittney!
