In The Beginning
MadDog~ I think I might have just stumbled onto my next blog topic. Indeed, folks often think I have a sprained ankle and children ask how I broke my arm because of the platform crutch. I have had many a long hard glare while parked in a disabled spot, until someone sees me tryin to get out of my car or they see my crutch.
I don't expect courtesy and consideration just because of my disability--I think it should be given to everyone, able bodied, folks with disabilities, the elderly, etc.
What I do find as a walking quad is that I am in no mans land. Not able bodied but at the same time, not viewed as disabled by some of the complete quads I know.
No mans land is lonely--so I thought the blog would be a way to reach others as well as shed some light on the world of a Walking Quad.
