I can't walk. I am permanently disabled. My friend got me a car.
I shop at Burlington, Macy's, and the Children's place. I was injured in a car accident once. I am the parent to three kids.
How have your kids been? They've been good - they're little terrors as always, but they're all in school now so we get a bit of a rest!! How are you finding the new car?  I had a bit of a learning curve using the hand controls but now it's so amazing to be able to get around again! I'm so glad for you! What type of car is it? I've always been interested to know what it's like to drive with your hands! It must be such a relief to get some of your independence back after all this time - where did you go in the car? Thanks!  It's a Honda Pilot (specially reconfigured) which gives me plenty of room for my wheelchair and getting in and out.  So far I've just gone to the supermarket and drug store, but it feels so good to be independent again!  And the hand controls aren't hard once you get the concept down. I actually think they're really nice looking cars, i'm happy for you :) Where are you looking forward to going the most?  If I can figure out how to navigate my wheelchair in sand, I'd love to go to the beach!  Remind me--what grades are your kids in? The youngest is in first grade, then third and 5th, so i can still just about help them with their homework! When you're going to the beach let me know, I'd love to come with you :)  I can only imagine how exhausted you are at the end of each day!  And that would be great!  I have to check my schedule and figure out some logistics, but having you along would be helpful, not to mention, fun! It would be SO fun, I love the beach! I'm sure you must be able to find some tyres for your wheelchair that can go offroad?  I think you're right about the tyres.  Let's plan an off-road beach trip!  How does next Friday morning (after you get the kids off to school) sound? Sounds perfect, I can't wait! I drop the Kids off at about 9, so can do anytime after that :) Where do you want to meet?
