My great Aunt lost her legs to a drunk driver. For decades, the men in the family had to help her get to the toilet, in places not meant for handicapped people.
In order for anyone in a wheelchair to use the toilet, that person has to leave it. Believe it or not, handicapped people don’t poop and pee in their wheelchairs!
If the rooms aren’t set up for wheelchair access, you leave the chair behind.
Handicapped people also have to leave their chairs to shower, go to bed, and travel somewhere in a car.
It’s always amazing to me when people who seem intelligent can’t see things that are obvious, even to children. You are one of them.
Please read Post #67. The article is confusing as hell — or (more likely) deliberately misleading. It makes it sound like the woman would NOT have needed to be carried to the restroom if the guy hadn’t tossed the wheelchair down the stairs.
