Hi everyone on the Disability Board. I'm new to this board. We plan on visiting WDW first week of December and will be taking my 75 year young Mom with us. Mom has severe arthritis in one knee and will need an ECV. I have the following questions:
1.) Has anyone here done the MVMCP with a wheelchair or ECV?
MVMCP looks great but is it feaible to think my Mom could get thru the crowds (40,000) at night in the Magic Kingdom with an ECV?
I know she would love to see this but if it's unmanageable we'll skip it and go to the Candlelight Processional at Epcot and see the lights at MGM. She loves Christmas time as do my sister and myself.
We decorate every room in her house and her mantle has the Dickens Christmas Village houses and people.
Any suggestions and experiences of people here on the Disability Board regarding MVMCP will be appreciated. As I said if it's unmanageable we'll skip it. I don't want to stress her out as we had a hard enough time trying to manipulate thru the crowds with Mom in an ECV during first week of May (it was her first time in an ECV). She didn't want one for 1 1/2 days in Disney. Then pain and common sense took over. Once she agreed to an ECV she loved it. It seems many people are inconsiderate and walk right in front of the ECV's.
Thank you for your help.
