Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 Hi Welcome to . Don't worry about your English, some of us with it as our only language have trouble with it. I'm sorry you have to be a mitoldie, but glad you found us. Your dilemma sounds very familiar. I went through the same thing about 10 years ago. I kept putting off getting a scooter or wheelchair, but was missing out on so much. When I got my first scooter, I hadn't realized how much I had been missing. It was like someone opened a door and finally let me in. Without my scooter, I would be sitting at home, having to depend on others. I still depend on others for some things, but am basically independent. I think you will find many people here who you will find have had many experiences that you have had. laurie > > Reply-To: > Date: Fri, 06 Jun 2003 15:23:51 -0000 > To: > Subject: new oldie > > Hi, > This is my first time on the .
