Guess who's back!!!! Yes that's right. Monday's with Margaret are here again for the whole summer!

I hung out with Margaret and creepily watched her get dressed so I could show you all how awesome she is at figuring out hacks that make quad paws no big deal. Ok maybe not no big deal....but at least she makes living with quad paws look doable! And she always does it with a smile on her face.

I always thought quadriplegics meant loss of arm use as well. Great to see a quad able to use her arms.

Yey!! I’m glad to see you both again!

Hi Brittany and Margaret thank you so much for all your videos.
I am much older and I have multiple sclerosis, but my mobility problems are similar. I adopted many of your tricks, like transfers, how to get dressed, bathroom procedures, shower, everything. I have not managed to find any instruction from anybody in my 30 years of MS. You are my lifesaver. THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙌🤗
By the way, I am also Canadian I live in Toronto.

Interesting love it! I was going to do my next video on how to put jeans on. I usually put a key ring in the zipper to be able to put it up easier. Also do up the zipper before buttoning the pants which I find helps. That said my pants are a little bit lower waisted. Thanks for sharing! Love seeing other quad hacks! Keep on killing it!

Margaret has great arms! She puts my flabby upper arms to shame. :) I’m loving the videos! I am not handicapped but my elderly father is really struggling with his limitations, and so your videos are really helping me in helping him. THANK YOU. (He is losing function with his lower body, including his legs)

Thank you for the informative video. I understand what you go through. I am T4 para with full hand function. I would love to know how you manage pants and using the toilet. (catheterizing and getting pants back up) This is an area that keep me from being independent and needing a caregiver.

Ok I got one for Margaret, how the hey ( to be polite) do you prepare your meals.? You do you have your personal cook take care of it? Lol

How was rehab for you? I’m looking to rehab myself for my rheumatoid arthritis because it’s so progressive and I’m wheelchair ♿️ bound from it. My hands are deformed too
