Traveling with recovering parent and young nephews - The DIS Discussion Forums

Chropistopy · 10-05-2009, 11:52 AM

I'm hoping for some advice on my upcoming trip in December. I will be traveling with my parents and my nephews (4 and 6). My dad had bypass surgery in March. He's doing well but not completely back to his old self. My mom has trouble walking for long periods of time. On the other end of the spectrum, my nephews will be fired up and ready to go all the time. Any advice on making the trip a good one for both my parents and my nephews? Any places / attractions that would allow for my parents to rest and my nephews to stay entertained? We'll be in the parks for 5 full days and visiting all 4 parks.

Thank you!!

I would suggest going over to the disABILITIES Forum. One of the first threads is the disABILITIES FAQs. On Post #2 we discuss mobility and stamina problems, and also information about wheelchairs and ECVs. Also this question may be better answered in that forum.
