Hi,
I was wondering if you guys could give me so advice regarding my upcoming trip. I have cerebral palsy and have limited use in my hands and walking/standing for too long. This has never been a problem on previous trips as I travel with my parents and have always just rented a wheelchair and waited in line for the rides as normal, no problem. However, on my next trip, I am travelling with my sister, brother-in-law and 11 year old niece. My sister also has a disability which affects her walking. Her's is quite a bit more severe then mine so she will also need a wheelchair. The problem is - we only have one adult (my brother in law) who will be able to push the wheelchair so we can't both use one. I am not too worried about walking around the park as we will take it very easy and I will rest as needed - and its standing still for too long that is hardest for me. So basically...I am worried about the lines, as really, I need somewhere to sit. EVC's are not suitable for either me or my sister as I have too little use in my hands as my sisters condition is neurological and affects her spatial awareness.
I know DAS is not usually issued for mobility problems, and I've never even bothered asking in the past, but are there any exceptions made in circumstances like ours? I am really worried that I am going to have to struggle the entire trip.
