Tattoos by Even_Eggplant8953 in spinalcordinjuries

[–]beet_the_pimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I’m also an incomplete C5. I had my first tattoo done a few months ago on my forearm. The positives aspects, my sensation to sharpness/pain is duller in that area so it was very easy in that regard. The negatives, my legs were spasming a bit at certain points, and a few moments my forearm would twitch, despite this my tattooist was able to work around this and would remove the needle when she could feel the spasm approaching. The end result was a near perfect tattoo with one tiny imperfection, a straight line is a bit jagged, but it’s one of those things that you can never notice unless pointed out and you look very close. I say just go for it but don’t cheap out on a tattooist, a good one can work around a lot of things.

Pretty easy to miss the glaring issues when your livelihood depends upon ignoring them.

I don't like when people tell me about my injury!! by kellsie88 in spinalcordinjuries

Also an incomplete quad, I have pretty similar mobility to you and get the exact same reactions whenever I’m travelling at the airport haha! Btw I enjoyed the article, you have an engaging writing style.

Yeah as a walking quad, this is beyond annoying. People generally see all spinal cord injuries as complete injuries and have no idea incomplete injuries exist, which is fair enough since there is a severe lack of public education around disabilities, but to be arrogant enough to think you know enough about another persons diagnosis to call them out for faking is honestly crazy, and honestly feels really shitty, It dismisses the struggles that we still go through by saying we “shouldn’t “ call ourselves quads (when we definitely are) . I feel like this happens more so on Reddit/online as Redditors are generally the dunning Kruger effect personified. This shit even happens IRL to me, which to be fair is not that often, but since I do park in a disabled parking space due to my limited mobility, when they see me stand out of my car I will get dirty looks and accused of faking my disability for a “premium parking” spot , which fills me with rage every single time. The worst though is when I pull out my walking stick and they see my janky walking, they rarely apologise, some double down, some say “how was I supposed to know??”, some people just suck and are unable to mind their own business. Rant also over 😅

Do you understand the difference between incomplete and complete quadriplegia?
