Myomo Clinician Visit
Yesterday, Clinician Jack fitted me with the Myomo Pro for a trial run. I have to say—it was pretty cool. For a moment, I felt like Robocop or some kind of cyborg, ready to take on the world with mechanical precision.
But as the trial went on, I realized this tool wasn’t quite the right fit for me. The Myomo Pro couldn’t help with the motion I struggle with most: reaching toward the ceiling, lifting my hand high to shout “Alleluia!” That upward stretch is where my right arm faces its greatest challenge.
Jack explained that the current sensor technology isn’t quite there yet—it would take further research and development to support that kind of movement. So, while the experience was fascinating, the Myomo Pro couldn’t fully meet my needs.
Alas, it seems I wasn’t meant for the life of a cyborg after all.

Excursion to Supercuts – A Slice of Everyday Joy
Today’s adventure was a perfect blend of practicality, comfort, and a little indulgence. Maria, my sister and caregiver, helped me get ready for a much-needed haircut. We took the mobility van, with my power wheelchair in tow ♿—a smooth ride that always feels like a small victory in accessibility.
Our first stop was Dunkin’ Donuts, where I tried the Dunkin' Chipotle Hash Brown Wake-Up Wrap. It had just the right kick to wake up my taste buds and set the tone for the day. Maria and I shared a few laughs over coffee, the kind of quiet moments that make outings feel special.
At Supercuts, we were greeted by Linda, our stylist. Even though the place was buzzing with activity, they honored our appointment right away. Calling ahead to confirm wheelchair accessibility paid off—it was a seamless experience from entry to styling chair. I told Linda I wanted my hair longer on top, shorter in length overall, with a subtle fade on the sides that still allowed for styling. She listened closely and delivered exactly what I envisioned. There’s something empowering about a fresh cut that reflects your personality.
On the way home, we made a final stop at Wendy’s. I treated myself to a Son of Baconator combo with a refreshing lemonade. It was the kind of meal that says, “You’ve earned this.” And honestly, I had.
It wasn’t just a haircut—it was a reminder that with a little planning, good company, and a dash of flavor, everyday errands can turn into meaningful excursions.

Coffee Run
Life is too short for mediocre coffee, and that's where Dunkin' comes in. Power on the wheelchair, pack into the mobility van and refreshments await.
