  • This is a video of me telling you what I did in the month of September. I discuss why I haven't uploaded any videos this month and where I've been, van evaluation, my ROHO cushion and NuMotion, updates on college and my job, and more. What did you do in the month of September?

      Nice video dude.
      What did I do this month? Study and nothing else :(

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      Thanks! Yeah, studying is frustrating. Haha

    Hey there Mason. I just wanted to say thank you. Last week was my year anniversary from becoming a C5 C6 quadriplegic, and I began watching you while as an inpatient. It was your Channel that really allowed myself and my family to understand quadriplegia. You have motivated and inspired me, and for that I want to say thank you and keep up the good work. In this next year I too will get my driving evaluation, and I'm back to work between 20 and 30 hours a week already. In the month of September I felt elated to watch my 4 and 6 year old boys take to the ice for the first time to learn ice hockey! Peace, Alex

      Awesome! Thank you very much for this great feedback! I appreciate knowing my videos help. Goodluck!

    One of the cardinal rules I've learned in life, especially with an SCI is staying on top of what needs to be done. Remember to take names, get numbers, and call call call over and over again until you get what you need

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +2

      I agree! You have to keep pushing the issue and annoy them...

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +2

      Haha Yeah, that’s what my dad got the last two times. I would’ve got one, but the Chicago Dog that I got the first time was too good not to get again.

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      BTW, I forgot to shout out your video of fixing the ROHO cushion. Smh

    Sitting on hold with Nomotion as I type,just getting replacement tires and armrest pads that I will install myself is now into it's second week. They are the Walmart of wheelchairs and have horrible customer service.

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      Oh ya, that’s how it was with my seat cushion too. Goodluck! Haha

    i wish you good luck with the hunting. I think bowhunting is amazing

    I think my joints are coming apart as I get older. I did a video about my hydration setup I use at night or on the back of my chair in the summer when I have to go out and it is really hot. I recorded some more and decided I need to post more regularly and not just put 4 up at once and then nothing for a long time. Also finished Pathfinder part 1 in Battle for Azeroth. Once a geeky gamer always a geeky gamer. What are you doing now you will still be doing past 60?

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      I'll have to check out your videos!

    You've been busy! Glad nobody was hurt; your van damage; was it bad? Ah, you got to Sonic! Enjoy hotdogs until your fifty and your Proctologist tells you, "no more hotdogs". lol! Job, three classes online College; keep going! I may lean on you for some online education tips... 'Nomotion,' that applies to most vendors though I've never dealt w them. Next ROHO leak, fix w a bicycle inner tube patch at home so not to do wo! Totally Normal made a repair video for ROHO users. Me. I've been accepted as a Arizona Long Term Care Services (ALTCS) recipient...not available in Indiana, yet. Great benefits, medically, and, my wife is paid for my care. I'm a volunteer at Cobalt Rehab - Concierge...I've always wanted a title like, Baron, Duke, Dog Catcher! I enjoy getting back to busy! I've taken a position on United Health Care's Advisory Board (volunteer, 4 days a year with transportation provided to Phoenix and back). Got a new Quickie qm710 and really like it, but it's not to get wet and the dirt/ dust makes it squeeky indoors for a few days until the dirt is pummeled into powder. I bought a 3gal compressor to keep the whlchairs much cleaner. Have arranged a driving eval for early next year. Looking at Braun lowered floor mini-van(s), Toyota. Home mods are around the corner. A tablet to handle infa red technology (hopefully, lessons on 'how to' as well). Sonic, North of Mooresville? Had my first taste out here - believe that?! Accept my friend request on fb. Keep going,. Mason! ...you're impressing and driving others!!!

    If I were you I would have catheterized right then and there on the scene I don’t care LOL

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      Haha I was considering it!

    How to manage bladders and bowel

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      I haven’t got around to making videos on either of these issues. However, I do have a video showing how I catheterize. Watch it here - czcams.com/video/bcKjMC41-CM/video.html I use digital stimulation to control my bowels.

    • @priyanshusaxena6601
      @priyanshusaxena6601 Před 5 lety +1

    I think you can apply for social security

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +1

      I’m already on Social Security, but I will have to get off of it when I start working more than two days a week because I’ll be earning more than the limit per month.

    • @danielrusin1944
      @danielrusin1944 Před 5 lety +1

      Would your goal be to work full time

    • @masonx54
      @masonx54  Před 5 lety +2

      Yes
