Hi everyone, Just had a really great weekend, with no firm plans I've spent all three days with my pair of full length KAFOs and using my wheelchair to go out to local shops etc. It's been a long time since I spent more than a few hours with the KAFOs on, but it just felt right being braced and using my wheelchair and crutches. My only regret is that being single I didn't really have anyone to share my experience with, maybe in the future? ? Sadly now its back to reality for a few days but I'm already planning another weekend and possibly a trip away for a few days, something I've done before but not for a while. Hope you all had a good weekend, did anyone else do or see anything interesting I wonder. Cheers Jaylad.

Weather was lovely on the weekend, definitely made the most of it! Can't say the same for now though, staring out the office window and thinking I could probably dive out and end up swimming!

I love leg braces but Minerva and Halo back / neck braces even more. I have various braces incl. a non invasive halo but am talking to Penny about getting a rigid plastic bi valve brace that goes down to my coccyx and encloses my neck, head and even ears just leaving face exposed. Would love to meet up with like minded people. Email me on alex141274_uk@hotmail.com

Hi there Lifetime brace wearer Few of us left now More than willing to meet and share some experiences and issues Fighting off wheelchair but think sooner or later will have no choice It seems so many have chosen the path on wheels after being upright for so many years. That may be something in the my future but nothing I hope to ever need. It has to be such a dramatic change.
