DISABILITY IS NOT INABILITY!
Posted by Pam | Filed under Articles
Who says having a disability makes you unable to do things!! They are totally wrong!! Recently I had a GENTLEMAN on tour, who had the largest and heaviest wheelchair I have ever had to deal with – 300kg = 66Olbs but we did a whole tour – safari and all! Many hours of negotiations went on before we decided it could be done, with a smile, some compromise and removal of only one bathroom door – we did a African Adventure Tour for him, his partner and his carer. I worried about getting through doorways with this very long 1.3m long (52inch) and 800mm wide (32inch)plus a height of 1.45m (58inch). We managed and managed well. To all those accommodation venues and attractions that went out of their way to make this trip a reality – I salute you!
Thank you for all your efforts and help with this tour !!
and Michael thank you for your patience, understanding about my nervousness in making your tour the best it could be with what we have to work with within this mysterious, wonderful country of South Africa.
So when you think that you cannot do this -
