The writer in me says this is a fantastic opportunity for research!<br /><br />The human being says I hear your outrage at non-understanding people. And I feel your frustration for your father's - and others' - mobility problems. <br /><br />It reminds me of a senior in our small town. He gets around on one of those 4-wheeled scooters. Two years ago, he became frustrated when a heavy snowfall impeded his ability to get down to coffee row. Someone built him a cover much like you'd find on a walk-behind snowblower. Now, he scoots down Main Street in all types of weather, cover in place. Yesterday, I went to angle park between two cars in front of the Co-op and realized as I began the turn that this man's scooter was there - parked like a car. It looked so funny beside the half-tons. In the winter he adds a tall orange flag like on the kids' shopping carts, so he can be seen through the snow. <br /><br />I'm praising God for the blessing of the knee-walker and praying your father can sustain longer periods in it. Also praying for his health and your peace of mind.<br /><br />Anita Mae.Anita Mae Draperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618699900826731377noreply@blogger.com
