I love swimming when I can do it. And it makes me independent. I need help with getting in the pool. Once I am in i am good. I need help with getting out of the pool once I am ready to.
I use special equipment to get in to the pool. It is amazing too. I use the same equipment to get out. It is easier for me.
Being in the water is easier for my muscles to relax if i need them too. I like to move my muscles easier. And being in the water helps my muscles do just that. And I love that! I dont like it when my muscles are being so very tite. I can’t control them on my own in that way.
I’m able to keep up with ALL of my friends when I’m swimming. And I don’t feel much different from them in that way. Thank’s to ALL the speciall equipment that makes that possible for me to do just that.
I love going to the beatch when ever I can. Haveing a beach wheelchair available to borrow from the Rehab Center is a good thing to have. It has been SOOOO awesome! I have been able to go into the ocean because of it.
