air travel

Because my left side is out, I have to be lifted into my chair several times per day. this is an experience. first I am rolled into a mat, which then is hooked to a crane (they use the word: til-lift, but it is a crane). then I am lifted and deposited in my chair. unfortunately, the leg straps cut in my groin. It reminds me of putting on a parachute. first you hang it on your back like a rucksack, then you lock the chest strap and leg straps. then you tighten the leg straps. if you try to stand up you talk at a high pitch because the leg straps cut into the old family jewels. another similiarity. we always say: any landing you can walk away from is a good one (think of the trippelchair). now it is: Any landing you can walk and lay away from is a good one.
a special thank you goes to the guys at the GHS. I JUST GOT THE LATEST MANVĂ–VERKRITIK AND IT IS HEARTWARMING TO READ ALL THE COMMENTS ON MY SITUATION! I hope to be back in Braunfels next year, properly rebuilt with new lectures...
in closing, Battles magazine no 6 arrived today. Yay! Hurrah!
