Remember November 1

Yesterday was a big day. It was the eighth year anniversary of my accident. I can't believe it's been that long already. I've come a long way, and thank God for being alive. I also got my new wheelchair! After five months of being pushed around (pun intended) I'm finally independent again. The rep from Key Medical switched a few things over from my old wheelchair to my new one, but he's coming tomorrow to do more. I took it to Ridgedale Mall today to wear it in a little. I did a great job driving it and didn't run into one thing (well, except for the wall upstairs, but the black marks should come off easy!) I'm going to take pictures of my new wheelchair and post them and also talk more about in my next post. Just thought I'd give a quick update. It turned out to be a great day and one I'll remember!
