Re: Use wheelchair in airport-To Martha

[Guest guest]

Martha,

My husband was releived that I used a wheelchair prior to either one of my

foot surgeries. We had a connecting flight, and very little time to go from

one end of the airport to the other. We hailed a wheelchair and personnel

down and away we went. We made it on time. If I had to have walked, we

never would have made it!

Really, pre-boarding is not making a scene. I don't think twice about

people who need to. Good luck.

which he says I did when I did pre-boarding. He is really good about

everything else associated with CMT but he is really funny about that.
