Polio

Hi All

I'm new to this site.

I'm looking for friends Male of Female, disabled or not!

I am 61 years old and was struck down with polio when I was 5 years old. About 2 years later I was fitted with my first Callipers(Leg braces). In my younger days I was able to get around with the aid of axilla crutches. But know I use a wheelchair almost all the time, its less tyring. I have had several callipers over the years.

Although I am fast approaching old age I still like to wear a short skirts, showing off my callipers and built-up shoe. The only thing I don't like is when people will talk to my legs and not my face, its as if they hav'nt seen someone in a wheelchair before.

If you want to hear anymore about myself, please send me a message.


Luv

Michelle (Poliolady)

Hi Michelle, do you get people talking to the person who is pushing your wheelchair and not you? I really hate it!!
