I'm having a hard time coping in some ways. Just to get myself up, showered and dressed takes an hour and a bit. It's very time and energy consuming. I miss the days when I could be up and ready within 10 minutes.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I have a mild scoliosis. Although it causes a hell of a lot of pain.

no, but I do have very sore legs from the amount of running I've been using them for, what with soccer and ultimate frisbee every day of my life. so I can kinda feel for you.

I don't have a spinal cord injury, but it still takes me forever to get ready in the morning. Mostly because I sleep in for an extra hour and then get ready.

My dad is a parapalegic, so i know what you mean. he's i the shower fr 45-min to an hour,wjem he works days he has to get up around 4am just so he can make it to work ontime. and then there are the times whe he gets sores on his butt and he's laid up all day. It must be horribly, I coudn't imagine it.
