I was paralyzed from the waist down for several years in my thirties. The ten tips below came from my own hard, slow work to regain my mobility, and the common experiences of many disabled clients in similar situations. They will help you understand what might be happening in your mind, body and social life, moving you along the road to living normally with your disability as soon as possible.
Saving for care in our old age usually falls by the wayside in favor of the things we want to pay for now.

Do you remember Terri Schiavo, who at age 27, suffered a cardiac arrest, that lead to brain damage due to lack of oxygen? Her case went to the Supreme Court because she lacked legal documents that made her wishes clear. No one wants to believe anything bad could happen to them, but it can and often does. You can avoid some of the pain of of this type of situation by executing the proper legal documents.
If you travel with a disability, handicap, physical limitation, mobility limitation, or developmental disability, have special needs, or use an electric wheelchair or handicap scooter, it’s a good idea to learn as much as you can to make disabled travel easier.
Or if you’re a mature traveler or senior who is a slow walker or just wants a slower pace, becoming more informed about disabled travel services and disability travel resources, will lessen the anxiety that often accompanies disabled travelers.
