Recently diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease, this is my own personal account of how I cope with the every day trials and tribulations of life.

More often than not when we go into Leeds, we can get on the bus with no problems whatsoever, there are a minority who seem to think that pushchairs have more priority than wheelchairs even when asked by drivers to allow my wheelchair on the bus.  And there are the complete pig ignorant who won’t even walk a short distance just so I can’t get on the bus.  There’s one couple in particular who have been allowed to leave their pushchair up even when there is no room on the bus with my wheelchair and if they get on before us, we are not allowed on the bus at all, even when they are only getting off on the estate.  They were on the bus after us and she made a snidy comment while staring at me that she was “surprised the driver allowed them on the bus”.  I cannot talk and all I wanted to do was scream at the ignorant cow that I can still hear them and does she think I like being wheelchair bound when I used to be so fit and healthy.  One day I will have my phone and speaker fully charged and I will say it to her just to show her up for being so ignorant.

Lots of love

    Some people don’t know how lucky their are till something happens. People been nasty or unkind is very annoying I get it sometimes. But unlike you I have a voice and do say something if I am not in mood then partner has a go. Until their realize that their been ungrateful and hurtful nothing you can do. Chin up.
