        Hey everyone! Hope you’re all having a great week.

        Check out my latest column here. I had to get bloodwork done a few weeks ago, in preparation for my eighth Spinraza injection. Finding a vein to draw blood from is tough for a lot of us. Fortunately though, this particular appointment went great.

        This situation made me think about the idea of “finding the sweet spot.” I wrote about how this concept applies to positioning in my wheelchair and bed, working at my computer, and other things. I hope you enjoy.

        Can you relate to this notion? Do you have any other examples?

              Thanks for the feedback! Yeah it’s crazy how many scenarios this idea applies to.

              Nicely wrote column Kevin, lots of humor, but ”Lexington, Kentucky” line was the best one for me:D Is Lexington, Kentucky really notorious for accessibility, or is it like generally one should not expect many accessible sites in Kentucky state? Whatever the reason is, I like how the whole sentence sounds.

              So as I said I like the humor, but it is really kind of text that shows how much trouble people with SMA have to go through every single day.

                  I can certainly relate. A few years back during a hospital stay I questioned if I’d ever be comfortable again. It’s also why I’m hesitant to get a new chair. Luckily most people understand that I’m seated for an extended amount of time so it’s important to be comfortable. I try not to be too picky though.

                      I hear ya. I try to hold on to the same chair for as long as possible. Getting comfortable in a new one can be tricky!
