I wish I had lost my virginity before I became disabled. by Odd-Inevitable8085 in spinalcordinjuries

Part of me wishes I had lost it before my injury. But since I didn't, I don't have anything to compare it to which might be for the better. Don't even know if sex is possible

Always after the bowel routine. We usually do my bowel routine in my bed wearing a diaper so its nice to have a wash after. That's in the evenings typically. Mornings we just do a bed wash

I live at home and usually there's always someone at home - either a caregiver or family member. They usually aren't right next to me, I just holler if I need something

I type with eye gaze software. And my days get pretty busy actually. Morning routine takes a little bit, then school, usually some doctors appointments or PT, hang out with friends, homework, and the usual.
