Adapting to Change Creatively
Hey everyone, hope you all are having a great week!
Check out Kala’s latest column here: https://smanewstoday.com/2019/04/09/sma-change-adaptibility/. I could definitely relate to this, and I’ve written about how adaptability factors into living with SMA.
Do you have any takeaways from this column? Has anyone else transitioned from using a power wheelchair to a manual one?

That’s a really interesting point. Sometimes it’s better to just let something go than to stubbornly cling to it.

With SMA you certainly have to roll with the punches. I don’t think I would adjust as well as Kayla not being able to drive my wheelchair though. Maybe, like Ryan suggested, I would be trying different placements or even different joystick styles. Sip n’ Puff (I think) doesn’t require use of your hands. Everyone is different though, so whatever works for you is what you have to do.
