MY JOURNEY WITH COPD – part 5

Hi all! Hope the warmer weather here in the UK is helping your breathing.

Just a note to tell you that our daughter is moving house which is great news and I’m happy for her but

The house is on the side of a hill and there are steps up to it. My scooter doesn’t do steps so I need to think outside the box.

Here comes NANNY POPPINS.😀

Hi, try looking for lightweight aluminim ramps on the net or any disability shop. They come in various sizes, so if you have a mobile phone ring ahead for assistance on moving them up the steps as you go or get your daughter to keep them at her new home for your use. The hill, providing it's not too steep, your scooter should be able to manage with a well charged battery, let it go flat you will have problems with both the hill & steps. the ramps are not too expensive, some are even on e-bay. I've got a set 6' long which I definitely can't carry on the scooter but if they stay at the house then you don't need to worry.
