Just had wheelchair services around to assess ds2 for a proper wheelchair. The woman brought one for him to sit in, and he loved it, but omg, it was sooo hard seeing him sitting there. Fighting back the tears big time I was.
Anyway, she is ordering him one, so we should have it by summer.
He was really proud of himself, and even managed to self propel himself backwards and forwards with a huge grin on his face, but it is a real smack in the face iyswim. He will cope better than me I know. I wonder how I will cope by the reactions of others to him?
