Just shooting a thank you for your video. You are literally the only video I have been able to find with similar function to me and actually showing how to do this completely. Much appreciated! 🤘
Hey no problem. Thanks for watching. Stay tuned as well because I have a few events coming up that will be a pretty awesome experience for people in the adaptive world
DL Brittain thanks DL! I’m going to keep posting. I’m a pretty positive person being in this situation so I like to help others live a little easier lifestyle. 🤙🏻
I just can't thank you enough for this video. My injury is a C4 incomplete, and for years, I got away with walking and everything. Slowly, but surely, my sensation and function started decreasing and now I'm in a wheelchair permanently with pressure on the spinal cord. My hand function was the only thing really affected at first and now it's ridiculously bad...so thank you for this video.
@@gimpgangster it truly does. For years I was spoiled by not having many SCI symptoms. Now it's hit me like a vengeance and these videos help me cope and figure out how to do things again and easier. Thanks.
Morgan Calvi that’s awesome! Yeah I didn’t have any videos like this when I was fresh so once I started gaining independence I thought I’d share what’s helped me so it doesn’t take someone else 7 years to figure it out. 🤘🏻
@@gimpgangster and I applaud you for that. I was quite bummed with my current situation, not because of any injury or my limitations, but stupid doctors had half the equation--thinking it's only an orthopedic issue I have--and made a bunch of bad, hasty decisions from there. They abandoned my care without getting all the info and test results. They left me with no hip joint and serious autonomic dysreflexia issues and other neurological problems. They left me struggling to fight...and these videos help the struggle less of a problem. I hope Drs. Catherine Cavanaugh (Damariscotta, ME), Ed White (Damariscotta, ME), Robert Trousdale (Mayo Clinic, MN), Matthew T Koudek (Mayo Clinic, MN), and Tad Mabry (Mayo Clinic, MN) are happy.
Thank you for sharing this to support the community. I’m an OT and volunteer with United Spinal. Could I get your permission to show this video during a course I teach to better educate therapists and nurses? Thanks for the consideration! Jeffrey Despommier, OTR, OMS, CUA, ATP
Daniel Rodriguez you loop it through. You take the back end and push it through a hole in the zipper. Then you’ll take the part you pull and loop it through the back end. Then pull it tight.
