We all know that having a chronic illness can be difficult and depressing, so this is a thread about the silly things that have happened as a result of our illnesses and disabilities.

Please keep them silly or funny, there's enough depressing stuff on Lemmy these days 🙂

This is my particular piece of stupidity 😁

About 15 years ago I was seriously ill, several weeks in hospital including a coma and a lot of rehab. In the meantime, my wife had moved us in with my mother while work was being done on our house.

When I got home from the hospital, I was excited to get back online to catch up with my friends, so picked my computer up and ran up the stairs. I got about three steps up and literally got stuck, my legs just wouldn't move.

I had to get my wife to squeeze past me on the stairs and take my computer, while I got back down, took the computer back so that she could get down, then give it back to her to put down.

Slightly embarrassing, but always makes me laugh 😁
