Tom only you can come up with the course of action that is best for you. Since I am a c2 c3 quad I don't nave the choice of how to transfer, but I do know that some times we want to do more than we should. If by doing your transfers without a lift you put your self at risk for more skin problems maybe you should rethink your transfer options. Your skin can only take so much abuse and then you have continuing chronic skin problems and you don't want that.

I'm trying to avoid lifts, hoyers aides, etc.Before the surgery, I had no problems in transferring and being independent. I really want to avoid buying more equipment and being so dependent on them. I wantto transfer from the 'chair on to an activaid shower seat. Am I crazy? am I pushing my recovery too much? Thanks, Tom
