Wheelchair Autie Vs Ticket Office
You know, it's bad enough being a Wheelchair User when it comes to Public Transport. Adding my Fretful, Vexing, Social-Phobic Aspie Brain to that, means that it never goes well when it comes to using them. Now, I am glad to say, in hindsight, that this was the only thing that went wrong with this … Continue reading Wheelchair Autie Vs Ticket Office

My legs are … Continue reading Physi-Oh… Lordy…No…

Second day of stumbling around, attempting to survive on my own under these... unpleasant circumstances. You would think it would be better. Easier. Yeh... It's really not. It's been worse. Now I'm sitting here, in my chair in the lounge, watching Andy Murray, alone and cold, unable to reach the damned radiator and turn it … Continue reading Independent Struggles
