As all those with spinal cord injury, I have an AchillesHeel: for some it is tissue viability, others bowel complaints and there are those who struggle to cope with spasms. For me the constant battle is to avoid picking up yet another urine infection – glamorous I know! The North West Spinal Injuries Centre has looked after me extremely well however we are all still baffled by the root cause of my ongoing difficulties – the team will continue to battle on to find an answer!
