Dear inconsiderate abled people,
I have to wheel my dad in and out of dialysis.
When we arrived, the parking spot closest to the wheelchair crosswalk looked like this.
Me, a disabled person, had to walk these carts to the receptacle so we could park properly.
But the fun didn’t stop there!
Let’s take a look at the wheelchair crosswalk.
This is the ONLY place you can access the dialysis establishment with a wheelchair. This person decided to leave their car parked there for 15 minutes while they got their Chinese food.
I had to slowly back my dad’s wheelchair down the curb in order to get him back to the car. I would prefer to not employ less-than-safe wheelchair maneuvers with my disabled elderly father.
So I ask anyone who doesn’t fear a little confrontation, if you see people doing these kinds of things, please say something.
And if you know someone who does these kinds of things, maybe send them this post and show them the unseen consequences of their actions.
Thanks a bunch,
Froggie
