The gym that I’m thinking of joining, there’s a phrase I never thought I’d say, has three pieces of accessible equipment. I went yesterday for a free trial day to see if the machines would work for me and if they’d be enough to keep me interested with a variety of exercises. One of the […]
We took the elevator up, rolled over to the door, and opened it. No one was there. I pushed through the door and stopped for a moment. Memories rolled over me. Unpleasant. Unnecessary. Unwanted. But they were there anyway. As I sat, getting ready to roll, I remember all the times I came last, the […]
I booked a hotel room today at a chain that I don’t often stay at. I went on their website and could find rates and rooms but no information on accessibility. So, I called. I don’t understand why accessibility is so foreign that it requires a call, why can computers handle it? Anyways, I called. […]
Throughout our visit to the duck, there was a constant thrumming annoyance. To understand this understand that I’m a 64 year old man who, with a little help, is a good decision maker and has input into every decision that’s made regarding everything. I’m lucky, I know. So here’s the thing, throughout the whole trip […]
Finally the duck is in full view, we are all in awe of it’s size, it’s really big. It had been a lot of work getting there and the kids were thrilled to see the duck close up. They jumped off the end of the concrete pathway and down to the sand and ran right […]
The crowds grew thicker as we got closer to the duck. We’d begun to be able to see the hard yellow rounded surface on top of the rubber duck’s head. I was pushing my chair carefully. I don’t let anyone push me in crowds, I need to be able to navigate moment by moment, people […]
It was way hotter than was predicted, the sun was stronger, so we’d headed out to see the world’s largest rubber duck completely unprepared. We weren’t exactly sure where the duck was so we headed in the wrong direction. I was in my manual chair and pushing on outdoor surfaces is still really difficult for […]
“I don’t like being referred to as ‘the wheelchair.’” I said it calmly and as ‘matter of fact’ as I possibility could. After being in a wheelchair for over a decade some of the emotion has drained out of my protests, which in some cases is a really good thing. I just want people to […]
Today is our 48th anniversary. It is not the anniversary of our wedding, it’s the anniversary of our wedding. Let me explain. We had a legal, recognized by the state, wedding a couple years ago somewhere in the beginning of June. We don’t commemorate that day, it’s simply the day that the law got involved […]
