My grandmother is in the hospital recovmering from surgery and all the seats in her room where taken.

So I sat in her wheel chair, and I got curious about it and I started like rolling around in the Wheelchair.

My mother and my friend both told me that it is bad luck to be in a wheel chair when your okay.
My friend said his brother did that and ended up on crutches later on.
And as a joke I told my mom "Hey these thigns are convienient i want a wheel chair" And she was like Don't say that!


Is this true that it is bad luck to do that? Or just a superstition?

Superstition.

I knew it. God forbid soemthing like that were to happen.
But I admit, Wheelchairs are pretty convenient for the elderly.
You're a nurse, you must get a kick out of riding wheelchairs

Not quite a nurse, will be in the summer. I have to finish this semester and next at school.

No, we don't ride wheelchairs at the hospital. It is not permitted.

Aww well good luck with becoming one! :)

Oh :/

I only been inside one after my surgery but I never knew how hard it really is for someoen to use it. ITs not thtat easy.

But thanks for answering my ridiculous question :D

But then agina

There really are no dumb questions, just dumb answers :p

That's because it is really bad luck.

Trust me. Wheelchairs are no fun. I hurt my knee in March and had to use a wheelchair until recently. I ached for the freedom to get around on my own. My husband had to drive me to work and pick me up again, so I had to put up with his preferences in radio and CDs and windows open or closed. And accessibility is not what you think. I was shocked at where I couldn't easily go in a wheelchair. And since it wasn't electric, I was even more limited. I had to depend on people more than I cared to.

Thank God I am out of that wheelchair!
