Hi Gill
Cannot agree more,at times i do not know how i would have managed our hospital parking,is so so so bad,plenty of spaces for staff,then patients,very little for disabled!!!
I do not use it when Slim uses Sticks because i know how my daughter feels about people using disabled spaces,my grandchild has a large chair and needs lots of…[Read more]

Hi Everybody

Hi Jet
I wish you all the luck in the world,it is good to see someone doing so well,
as you know from post some people struggle, when you are in this position it is not very nice!!!!!.
There is an old saying (who wants to live till there 90,the person who is 89) so I do not think it is different what ever your age,I think you are very lucky!!!
Eve

Make sure your wonderful sister takes a break,she will find it takes a lot out of…[Read more]
