I am disabled with a condition called ehlers-danlos hypermobility type, I struggle day to day and still currently live at home with my parents although I am on the list waiting for a council property that is adapted. I hope that I can meet some other people who live in my area perhaps.

Hi craftyinsomniac,
Welcome to the community.
I hope you don't have to wait too long before a property becomes available for you -
Unfortunately it's been 3 years so far!!! I've got to be so specific in area because my mum is my main carer and doesn't have a car, neither have I, and so I'd either be really isolated if I moved out too far or I'd have the problem that if I fell (which I do) my mum would have a long trip to come out and get me!!! It's not a great situation but hey?!?! Similar to a lot of other people I should think!!!
xx
