I just wanted to thank everyone one of you again.
I actually started looking into renting them today. Despite my exercising, the pain isn't getting better, and I just can't see the typical 10 miles walked a day at the parks possible when I can't walk half a block without crying in pain. I WILL bring my cane, and thanks for reminding me. I keep it in the car but forget it wen I have my son and the stroller. It's funny, I bought it 10 years ago for my dad at an art fair. Beautifully colored wood and turned in an ice cream cone-like twist. Sadly, it was too short for him and is oddly GREAT for me! Good! It was $100.
It'll be very helpful when I don't have anything else to lean on or sit in.
We just went to a local theme park this past week and the experience was degrading and shaming. I didn't rent a
scooter, I had my son's stroller and just sat, a LOT. But sadly, I had to get off of 2 rides because I was too big. It was humiliating to be in a car and have to get out. THANK GOD for Disney where we can feel more part of our family.
As you know, I've never rented before. We always rent a car. What experiences do people have w/ that and having a scooter? I'm not actually sure what I weigh as my eating disorder counselors don't like me to know right now. But I did catch a glimpse when I had to be weighed when I was having those heart tests and I'm below 325, but not by much I don't think. Any advice? Will having one and a car/van be OK or hard?
Again, I'm SO blessed that you guys have such kind hearts. THANK YOU for sharing them w/ me.
