THOUGHTS & TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS COURSE:
1. Would I have had the opportunity to learn about Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) and the privilege of having this extra knowledge if I was a regular human being without a disability?
2. Would I even have cared to clothe myself with SCI knowledge if I didnt't have an SCI patient for a husband?
3. Would I even have known how to handle/care for an SCI patient, where medical jargon like Autonomic Dysreflexia (AD), Neurogenic Bladder/Bowel was involved?
4. Would I have had the opportunity to learn about Wound Care Management and the different methods used to treat chronic wound?
5. Most of all, would I ever even have such golden opportunities to attend courses like these?
The answer to all of the above would be: NO. I would have taken for granted that life was supposed to be good to me. I would just have been an ordinary human on earth going about my day, oblivious to the needs around me. So yes, it's a privilege to be a part of a "different" world. Because then, I can relate to different disabilities in more ways than one.
Found myself nodding away at some of the points mentioned as I have seen the Mr. doing it. Having occasionally heard his sharing first-hand on how he went through and subsequently overcame some of the not-so-easy moments, I cannot not salute him for it.
Coincidentally, 5th September is World SCI Day, so cheers to all the SCIs out there π·π· you've got this πͺπͺ
ps: why do I sound like an SCI myself? ππ
You're too kind with your words, Dr.
Thanks for your support. Always an honour to be a part of you guys ππ
One with the Lady Boss of Rehab department ππ
