Rim covers coming off when we take it out of the car?

We unfortunately are currently stuffing my wheelchair in the backseat of my sedan to leave the house (new car coming soon if everything goes well). I have cheap silicone push rim covers from Amazon and every time we wrangle it out of the car, the rim covers pop off. I’ve been looking at PVC rim covers from i-wheel partially for less static but also in the hopes that they’ll come off less easily. The ones I have now are easy to put back on but that’s still more time we have to take unloading and now that it’s reaching 90 degrees F… has anyone here had this issue before? Does anyone have this issue with i-wheel or other PVC covers? Any tips?

I have surgery scheduled a week from tomorrow to remove two impacted wisdom teeth and I’m very scared. I started going to an autism specific dentist this year after not going at all for over a decade. I do so poorly with dental stuff that it took me over a week to bite into things after she fixed one of my front teeth because the bite felt different. On the way home that day every time my tongue touched the spot I started crying again not because it hurt but just because it felt different. I’m going to an oral surgeon instead of my regular dentist and I’m freaking out. I don’t like that I’m not going to be able to use straws or vape (medical cannabis for chronic pain) or eat my regular foods. I know I’ll be able to eat mac and cheese (maybe?), but I don’t really like many soups and I don’t like smoothies. I’m worried that I’m going to freak out about blood and things being in my mouth. I don’t like swishing and spitting and I’m worried I’m gonna have to do that a lot. Does anyone have tips? If you’ve gone through this or something similar can you list the foods you ate after so I can get ideas? When I look suggestions up they mention a lot of things that I’m not interested in and wouldn’t even know how to cook and it stresses me out. I’m scared of being uncomfortable and unable to feel full. I’m gonna miss my hot dogs and sandwiches :(
