And here I am in the Netherlands, taking trips to the Midwest sometimes and crying everytime because it's so accessible and the ADA and what not. All from a tourist perspective, which is just.... I can get into a restaurant and use the sidewalks.
I am blessed to have a ramp. And now I'm realizing I say blessed when we're just human beings living our regular human being lives trying to get out of our house. I hope the regression will be a slow one for you and remember: a wheelchair isn't something to be ashamed about. Ambulatory wheelchair users exist so if you feel like you can profit off of one, so you may take a longer hike in the mountains or whatever, don't feel ashamed.
It's funny you mention that. I barely make it 30 minutes at my art receptions of I manage to submit work in a slow. I've been thinking about it and remembering how much of a fight I put up before getting a cane and how much I wished I hadn't waited so long. Probably time to talk to my doc. Thank you friend and I hope you get that chair hacked and at your command.
I got a lot of my freedom back by getting a chair. Good luck, friend!
