In the third year of the physical therapy grad school where my student PTs go, the students are sent into the local community in manual wheelchairs to experience life from a sitting position.
One of the students who works with me took the metro to a puffer lunch but was frustrated that the tables were all chest height for standing adults.
People in wheelchairs sure have to be resilient, he said.
'Whether we want to or not," I replied and he agreed.
That's the thing. I don't want to be resilient or brave or whatever.
It frustrates me that I have to be.
