 Do I choose to use a wheelchair even though I can technically walk? Yes, and I will tell you why. Quite frankly, it's a very effective tool. I can get weight off my prosthetic or take it off entirely. This helps lessen pain, gives me more energy to do things I actually wanna be doing. And on days when my leg is too messed up to walk, I can still get places. I think a misconception exists that the only reason someone would ever use a wheelchair is if they literally could not walk. And that's just frankly not true. A lot of people who use chairs do have the physical ability to walk, but there are a lot of reasons why using a chair is the right option for them. For me, using this at home for my lifestyle, amazing. So for me, yes, it is technically a choice. One that enables me to live in less pain more independently. And when I actually need to be able to walk, I can.
