Actually, no. My DH needs the wheel chair for walking long distances between gates. I don't. I'm 64. Part of the definition of health is being able to walk a distance. Mrs. Boyle, a nurse, you would think, would have known better. She must have missed "Health" in nursing school. LOL! -- http://cc.st/Chrissy-Cruiser-The-Hellion-Rebellion |

Isn't it amazing that many of the people who require wheel chairs to board and disembark cruise ships, never use them on the cruise. This particularly noticed with groups that accompany the designated wheel chair passenger person at the head of the line. Gadget Hi, wheelchairs/handicapped access (I use a brompton folding bicycle day to day... get a wheelchair in the airport... and don't flinch a bit about using a handicapped space... I've got about 25% heart function and a paralyzed right leg, a back broken in 3 places and a pelvis broken in 5... which is why I've wondered how hard it is to get around on the big cruise ships... sure I can walk (in pain) 50' but that's about it. so... how accessible are the big cruisers? -- Hackamore http://www.hackamoretravel.com |

If I were you, I'd rent a scooter to get around the big ships. 50' isn't going to get you from your cabin to the dining room. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count.
