For folks in wheelchairs: What is the most challenging aspect of living in a wheelchair?

dna asked:


I had my leg amputated last year and have been in a manual wheelchair since then. (My prosthesis isn’t fitting properly and I am having delays in my insurance coverage to change that.) My finances are very limited.

What are some things I need to know about living in a wheelchair that an average person wouldn’t know. Any tips on staying healthy and fit?

Any fun ideas to help make it more joyfull? Any practical tips on getting around and taking things from room to room.

How to stay comfortable. I live in it most of the time.

Thanks in advance for your kind support. :)

luvs, :)
