Got my first taste of paralysis last night [View all]
Apologies to those who go through it on a daily basis, but for me it was new and probably will end up being daily.
Was going to bed and my legs gave out. I didn't have the strength to sit up or get into a wheelchair we have just in case. It took a good 15 minutes to get me into the wheelchair and then I had to use the cane to get up the stairs to the bedroom. My wife has ordered a hospital bed for the ground floor. Oh joy.
