#babeswithmobilityaids

I’d love to hear people’s opinions, design frustrations and ideas.

Pros:

We’re both women with physical disabilities.

She’s in a powered chair.

I have arthritis, occasionally use a crutch and am trying to fight my medical aid for a rollator. Due to the nature of autoimmune arthritis I also have chronic fatigue.

Pros:

It looks like we would be the only company in my city and province doing this.

And possibly the only company in the country that’s actually run by disabled people. (None of the other places’ websites mention it).

Our country has terrible accessible infrastructure (public and private).

Our constitution clearly states a right to freedom from discrimination based on disability/health.

We also have a constitutional right to dignity.

Cons:

Neither of us know anything about consulting.

The legal guidelines on accessibility are quite vague.

My background is in aviation and I’m studying engineering but I have no experience with construction.

And my friend is a journalist, radio and tv newscaster and motivational speaker.

I've been on cbd the past few weeks and it's not miraculous but I'm fine. I'm managing better! It's thc free and completely legal. However it barely has a noticable effect. I don't feel more relaxed, I'm still as tensed but I'd say extreme pain sometimes doesn't hit as expected. It's pricy but for me it makes more difference my meds couldn't bring in 3 years.
