Feeling a bit isolated/not sure where to go
This is a bit of a downer for our first post but we need to get it out. Our name is Circulatory, we’re 22, and we’re disabled in lots of ways. We get a lot of support but some of our problems we don’t have support with because we regularly fall between services (being too high-needs for one and not high-needs enough for…

My mattress, the topper, and falling out of bed
My orthopaedic mattress, which was quite pricey, is the worst mattress I've had because it slips to one side of the bed. On top of the mattress, I have a lovely orthopaedic topper. That tends to slip to the side of the mattress. On a few occasions, I've ended up on the floor during the night. Is there anything to keep…

Personal Wheelchair budget - how much ?
I have had an electric wheelchair from my local NHS team for 6 months now and am totally unimpressed with the support that I get. I have had to call them out twice during this time and each time - they take at least 2 days to even respond - and then at least a week to actually come out and fix the problem. Both times -…

Life is hectic and is going to get more hectic.

Hi, my name is rotaryengine!
Hi, I am 81 years old and have been wearing Sketchers Slip-Ins but although they fit right they are tripping me. I think it is because the outside of the shoe is a lot larger and the sole thicker. The back of the shoe is extremely thick and stiff (I think that is what gives them the slip-in feature). Like a lot of seniors,…
