Leaving your home anytime when you require a mobility aid device makes you feel extra. I do miss the days when I could throw on a coat, grab my purse and keys, drive anywhere, dash across a parking lot, and enter any building. Now I need to plan for help to get ready, to drive me, make sure I can fully access my destination, and any help I will need there.
Make your destination out of town and overnight? Good luck. Finding a place to sleep just became several times harder. And requires much more time-consuming work. Are you feeling extra yet?

My dream is to visit Germany. I don’t know the language, besides some favorite meals. I will need to take a power wheelchair, while I hope it survives the plane ride. Me? I will require an aisle chair to get on and off the plane. How long is the flight?
I am definitely feeling extra and trying hard not to feel like a burden. I will share my progress. I have planned milestones to hopefully prepare me.
