People ask me how I’m going. “No but how are you really going? How’s your health”?

Each year I spend about a month or two not really doing much exercise. It is always summer because in summer I will always struggle to walk due to the heat. Heat affects me badly. It’s around about then that I start getting those questions. I guess it’s cause neighbours see me one way in the cooler months and another way during the hotter months.

My mobility scooter saves the day

I can mask how debilitating it is by getting around on my mobility scooter. Well that is as long as I don’t have to get up out of it. Sometimes I couldn’t be bothered going into the details of my problems with heat just in case I have done a bit of a backward slideI will still go to my rehab gym as most people there with neurological issues are on the same page.

Yet another reason why I travel with my scooter.
