thanks for your comment on my photos. check out the most recent one. i was having a crappy day, complaining about my petty problems and how hard my life is then i saw these people who had no legs, or only one leg racing in the marathon! i felt like such an ass, and it put things in perspective for me. i can't help wondering after reading your post if you'd think that there weren't enough things built for "average" americans if you were handicapped. if bending over another few inches to get the tp is the worst of your problems, you should probably consider yourself lucky.
