Packing With A Quadriplegic.

Just a few of the items I need to go away for a few days. Featured: Medicine, Catheters (2), a glove, tablet charger, phone charger, and Emergen-C Immune+ water flavor.

So next week I travel to Houston Texas to complete my driving evaluation again. I have gained a lot of strength in my arms but not enough to be able to use the steering wheel mechanism that I was trying the first time I went to Houston for my driving evaluation back in March. I am excited to start this chapter of my life so that I am going to be able to drive myself to my doctors appointment and just be able to get out of the house without having to find someone to drive me. I thought I would give you a look at everything that a quadriplegic needs to pack in order to go on a three day trip five hours away from home.
