Back with this old chestnut again, but going off my recent Instagram comments lots of people don’t know that… MANY WHEELCHAIR USERS CAN WALK!♿️🚶♀️
We aren’t ‘cured’ we aren’t ‘magic’ and no we aren’t ‘faking’ we use mobility to help us!
(If only it was *that* easy to be cured hey?)
There seems to still be this idea that if you use a wheelchair it must mean you’re unable to walk… yes that is true for some people, but not all people!
Wheelchairs are freedom, they help us get around while reducing: pain, tiredness, dizziness, dislocations, falls and so much more!
So next time, don’t be too shocked if you see a wheelchair user walking, standing or even running! 👀
