The Disability Journey - Chapter 2
Paralyzed and Braced
It had been nearly a month since Abby had taken away Katie’s bladder and bowel control. Katie had mostly become used to her chastity belt, her catheter making her incontinent and needing to wear adult diapers. In an odd way she was finding she actually kind of liked wearing diapers because she never had to worry about finding a bathroom. It had been so long since she had had a full bladder and felt the urge to urinate she was beginning to forget the feeling. Her anal plug slide in and out fairly easily now and while having enemas to clear her bowels was definitely not her favorite thing, she accepted it. Her belly no longer cramped with the massive inflow of water and she kind of liked her silhouette with a swollen, pregnant-looking belly. She did miss sex and masturbating and hoped that Abby would remove her chastity belt soon and either have sex with her or let her touch herself, but alas it was not to be.
When Katie got home from class one Friday night she found Abby in the living room. In the middle of the room was a large box. Abby stood up and handed Katie a glass of wine.
“Open it,” Abby said, smiling at Katie. Katie took a drink of her wine, set the glass down and obediently went over to the box and opened it. She pulled off the top packing material to reveal what was underneath.
“What are they?” Katie asked, puzzled, pulling the leather and metal contraption out of the box.
“They’re HKAFO braces. You will need them shortly to get around because I’m going to give you a shot at your L1 vertebrae temporarily paralyzing you.”
“WHAT?!?!” Katie screeched.
“Well, I’m going to take away your ability to control your lower body,” Abby said matter-of-factly, as if this was the most normal thing in the world.
“There’s no way I’m going to let you stick a… nee… needle.” Katie’s hand went to her forehead. “In… in… my.”
“In your back?” Abby said, finishing Katie's sentence as Katie’s eyes rolled back and she slumped into Abby’s arms. “I wasn’t asking.” Abby said to Katie’s unconscious form. She dragged Katie over to the couch and gently laid her face down. “I knew you’d have objections so I drugged your wine. You’ll thank me when you wake up.”
Abby worked Katie’s shirt up, exposing her back. She turned and opened a small case that was sitting on the coffee table. She removed a small medicine bottle and a syringe. She drew a measured dose into the syringe and set it down carefully. After she tore open an alcohol wipe and scrubbed Katie’s back, she picked up a marker. She counted up Katie’s spine and made a mark. She picked up the syringe and carefully inserted it into Katie’s spine at the mark she had made. She depressed the plunger slowly and the paralytic flowed into Katie’s spine. Abby withdrew the empty syringe and placed a small bandage over the injection site. She lovingly stroked Katie’s hair.
“Say ‘bye bye’ to your lower body.” Abby said, smiling. She pulled Katie’s shirt back down and rolled her onto her back. “When you wake, you’ll get to try your new braces.” Abby said sitting on the couch and lifting Katie’s head into her lap.
After fifteen or twenty minutes Katie began to stir. Eventually her eyes opened and she looked at Abby.
“Welcome back, dear,” Abby said.
Katie’s eyes were filled with confusion. Abby watched and could see Katie mentally assessing her body. Katie’s eyes went wide.
“Just take a few minutes to get adjusted,” Abby said. “I drugged your wine and while you were out, I gave you a shot in your back to partially paralyze you. That’s why why your body feels funny.”
“I…. I can’t believe you’ve done this to me,” Katie said with an edge of panic in her voice.
“Well I’m your master and it’s done so you’ll just have to learn to deal with it.” Abby replied. “Do you want to try your braces now? Otherwise I suppose you can drag yourself around the house on the floor.”
“I guess I don’t really have much of a choice,” Katie said. “How do they work?”
“I’ll put them on you, but pay attention because you’re going to have to learn how to do it yourself.” Abby slide out from under Katie and walked over to get Katie’s braces. “These are called HKAFO braces because they go from your hips to your feet. They will keep your legs and hips entirely ridged when the locks engage. Go ahead and slide your skirt off so I can help you put them on.” With some difficulty, Katie worked her skirt off her hips and down her legs. She struggled to lift and maneuver her limp legs. It was weird to only having partial sensation in her lower body. When she tried to move her legs they didn’t react like she wanted them to, if they moved at all. When her skirt was off and she lay there in her just her diaper and chastity belt Abby showed her the buckles and straps of her new braces. Katie watched as Abby strapped her legs into her new braces and fastened the pelvic band around her waist. Abby showed her the locks for her hips and knees and instructed her how to unlock them. Abby helped her sit up and swing her legs over the edge of the couch. She handed Katie the forearm crutches that had been leaning nearby and helped her stand up. The hip and knee locks clicked into place.
“With hip locks you can’t put one leg in front of the other; you’re now ridged from your hips to your ankles. You’ll have to use a swing through gait to move. Give it a try” Abby said. Katie moved her crutches forward and then swung her legs forward together. She crutched her way around the living room several times.
“This is really hard,” Katie said. “Why did you do this to me?”
“As you mistress, I am going to control your body completely. Taking away your bladder and bowel control, not to mention keeping you chaste, was the first step. Taking your body away from you is next.” Abby said.
“How long is this going to last?” Kate asked.
“As long as I want it to,” Abby replied. “Since you’re going to be paralyzed for awhile, you should continue to practice with your braces. You’ll have to wear them to school on Monday so you have the weekend to become proficient.” She showed Katie how to unlock the braces so she could sit down. For the next hour or so Katie practiced crutching around their house and standing up and sitting down.
“I guess I’m beginning to get the hang of this.” Katie said. “I mean I have to, don’t I?”
“Yes, you are and yes, you do.” Abby answered. “It looks like while you’ve been practicing you’ve filled your diaper. You should go change before dinner. It’s going to be more difficult to change yourself with your braces on and having limited control of your legs. You’re going to have to do it laying down on our bed I think. We’ll do your enema after dinner. We’re going to have to change how we do it a bit due to your new condition but that’ll have to be a surprise.”
Katie looked down and saw that the indicator stripe on her diaper was completely blue and realized that due to the lack of feeling she wasn’t really aware of the wetness of her diaper. Katie crutched her way to their bedroom.
“Make sure you use one of the disposable pads, I don’t want you leaking all over the bed.” Abby called after her. “And take off the rest of your clothes, you aren’t supposed to be wearing anything other than your diaper.”
“Yeah, yeah,” Katie said to herself. Making her way into their bedroom she crutched over to the cabinet and retrieved a fresh diaper, some wipes and a disposable absorbent pad. With some difficulty she carried them over to the bed. She spread the pad on the bed and, after leaning her crutches against the night stand, sat down on the bed. She removed her shirt and her bra and tossed them towards the hamper. She unlocked her braces, letting her legs fall. She had to use her arms to lift her limp, braced legs up onto the bed. With some difficulty she scooted her butt onto the absorbent pad. She picked up and lifted her limp legs apart, then lay back. She untaped her sodden diaper and wiggled it from under herself. She wiped herself clean as best she could with her chastity belt in the way. While she hadn’t really felt the plug in her anus for awhile now, she now discovered that she couldn’t feel it even when she concentrated on it. She tried to work the new diaper under herself but couldn’t get any leverage to lift her butt while holding onto the diaper. She rolled onto her side, lifting her braced legs into position, and spread the diaper below herself. She rolled back and fastened the diaper around herself.
“That was not easy. How am I going to do that at school on Monday?” She said to herself. She lifted her legs over the edge of the bed and grabbed the crutches. She worked herself to a standing position and the locks on her braces clicked shut. She picked up the absorbent pad, which had wet spots from where she’d leaked urine while changing her diaper, and disposed of it in the trash can. She crutched her way to the dining room where Abby had set out dinner.
After dinner Abby told Katie it was time for her nightly enema and ordered her to the bathroom. Katie crutched her way into the bathroom and discovered that there was a shower chair sitting there.
“Since your arms can’t be free while you have your enema and you can’t stand without your crutches, you’ll have to sit in this shower chair with your arms strapped to the armrests.” Abby explained. “Sit.” Katie obediently crutched to the shower chair, unlocked her braces and sat down. Abby ordered her to put her arms on the armrests and strapped them down. The shower chair had a cutout in the seat that would allow access to Katie’s anus. Abby removed Katie’s diaper and her chastity belt and clipped and taped her catheter out of the way. Katie couldn’t feel the plug slide out of her anus as Abby removed it, nor the nozzle of the enema entering her. Abby turned on the water and Katie’s belly swelled as her bowels filled. Then came the normal 5 minute hold time and then Abby put a commode attachment under the seat of the shower chair and removed Katie’s plug. A little bit of what was inside her ran out.
“Go on,” Abby said, “get it all out.”
“I can’t seem to push.” Katie said.
“Hmm, I wasn’t sure if your bowels would be affected or not, this isn’t a precise science. I guess they are.” Abby replied. She put her hands on Katie’s belly and began massaging and squeezing her. With every squeeze a stream of waste gushed from Katie’s anus. Eventually it slowed to just a few drips and Abby cleaned Katie up. She inserted the anal plug and fit the chastity belt back on her, threading the catheter through its hole. She pulled out one of Katie’s night time diapers and put the booster pad in it. She worked it under Katie and fastened it around her.
“Okay, time for bed.” Abby said as she freed Katie’s arms from their bindings. She handed Katie her crutches. Katie struggled her way standing and the locks on her braces clicked into place making her ridged from the hips to her ankles again. She crutched her way to their bedroom and sat on their bed. She unlocked the locks and lifted her legs up onto the bed. She began to unfasten the straps of her braces. She struggled at getting out from under her limp legs and Abby came over and helped her. Finally free of her braces, Katie explored her unfeeling legs. It was very weird to be feeling them with her hands but not feel her hands on her legs. She traced a line up her hip and found the place where her paralysis ended. She marveled at the sensation. She moved her legs into position and lay down. She fell asleep wondering how the next day would go.
