Re: travel with scooter/meeting CMT friends on cruise

[Guest guest]

My two daughters, granddaughter and I just got back from the same Alaska cruse

that Jim was on. My granddaughter was that Jim

spoke about but I am the one that has CMT.

I used just a simple walker because it was small and easy to carry around but I

could not go on the gravel well at all so missed some of the tours like the one

with the sled dogs. They would make a wheelchair available if I requested it. I

have a scooter in my garage but

my daughter did not think I needed it on the trip....she does not think of me as

handicapped!!!!!!

The day I left I read messages for the last time before leaving and there was

Jim's message that he and his wife were going to Alaska

at same time that we were going, so I made a point of looking for them.

Found them without any trouble...Jim's red scooter was shinning out loud. I

enjoyed the trip and would recommend it. Everyone was so helpful. Knowing

about Jim's experience I would not hesitate to take the scooter.
