i hate being a cripple

i had my assesment for my new apartment today. my case manager pretty much told me that it's either having pool physical therapy or the new apartment because they don't have staff available to take me to the pool, that would cost too much or some bullshit. when they were transferring me out of my chair for some reason, i shocked the people who came to assess me by showing them how "mobile" i am. they were amazed, it was nothing to me to get out of my chair. i just need someone there to make sure that i don't get hurt- i'm a one-person transfer in medical terms. i didn't know that i looked more crippled than i really am, that pisses me off.
