Mobility Issues and...

This is where she find herself; packing if to go away...
Life has been a little rough around the edges, with our fight to stay where we are....A ground floor suite where one would think that there wouldn't be an issue and yet one has seemed to find us...
Smoothed over we hope; thanks to Global BC news and the outpouring of community support.

A little girl with mobility and vocalization issues; just wanting to be; a little girl.

Right now we have come to a place where, we had posted this to our door before everything blew out of proportion.

And with that; I have written Emily's physiotherapist as to the direction we should go...

Realistic Expectations???

Some questions never seem to escape my mind.....such has been Emily's long term mobility issues....requiring a (walker/stroller/wheelchair)

Right now, we have been having some serious in house discussion over this issue.....(did you see the article on Global news a week or so back??)  If not, we had been having some complaint from our across the hall neighbour over Emily's mobility noise, that was until I brought it to the attention of the media; this to save our tenancy.

Yes. in the space of two months since these people had become our neighbours this had become an eviction issue for us with two threatening notices in the space of not even six weeks.

At home, Emily either bum scoots or pushes a small stool around the kitchen, but when we are out and about it is either the walker or a stroller.

What is your feel, as I am to the belief that for longer periods out and because Emily tires easily a stroller or wheelchair of some kind would be the better?

In saying, we have gone through a number of strollers in her three and a half years. and though we have tried to go after durability....her current stroller is too falling apart as it can not withstand; either her weight (40+) or the day to day grind....

We are always on the lookout for strollers...It's kind of funny, but every time we are cruising the strollers isles of Wal-Mart or...Emily points and gestures as to which would be the perfect one.

The one we have our eye one now is a jogger stroller, but in saying, Emily has outlasted all, so the money we have spent for quality is; where does the money drain stop??

 

Your thoughts. ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated, because along with the right walker, we feel that Emily will need the right fit in other mobility equipment??? 

Thanks;

When Does Harassment Stop

Another complaint (leading to our eviction) SURE PRAY NOT!!!!!
OUR (MY) RESPONCE
To whom it may Concern @ Bay west Management
We the tenants of suite #104 who are being accused by an unnamed source of loud and unruly noises must therefore understand our side of the argument.
We understand that we occupy the only suite that has linoleum in it entryway; maybe this is a contributing factor as to the noise level.
We have ourselves and our two daughters who are aged 5 and 3 ½, however our youngest daughter has many a challenge as she is non-verbal and was born with hydrocephalus (water on the brain,) epilepsy and cerebral palsy and does not walk unaided.
She does however drag a small kitchen stool and sometimes a chair around the suite; mainly in the kitchen which again is linoleum. So at times very loud.
We have tried to keep our daughters voices down as well as our own, but again there too has to be some level of understanding.
We; Michael and I are ourselves physically challenged; as both of us have only the full use of our left hands. He; born with cerebral palsy and epilepsy and I was struck by a car in 1973 when I was aged 5.
We have tried and will here on continue try and abide by Bay west and Birchwood Manor policy of conduct.
To our understanding, we live alongside some wonderful neighbors of varying ages; again what a wonderful (community) to be a part of.
Sincerely

WROTE GLOBAL BC NEWS;

I did something I thought I'd never do; bring further "public" attention to our situation------by welcoming Global BC into the conversation as I emailed Chris Gailus

A Global camera man was at our home Friday to introduce himself readying us for Monday. A reporter and the story

DRAUMA PART TWO
In your opinion; what should we do? Cancel; Global News, as we have finally been introduced to our accusers.... Seemingly "nice people" with a 4ish month old baby. Understandingly, they were just trying to look out for their baby, but obviously going about things the wrong way after all of their accusations, only been introduced now after everything?
I had a heated discussion with the manager prompting our face to face, but why should it have come to that?? If the people across from us felt that we were being too loud then they should have come to our door first rather than having us being handed these notices pre:eviction.
As our accusers say; that when we get up and going in the morning, he too is just leaving for work but the little girls is going to sleep....However we are still worried about it eventually coming back to bite us resulting in our eventual eviction???
This x-RCMP officer says that he has a good relationship with Global BC personal.so to cancel the news crew, so would want to tell his side of the story...but to us something does not add up here....so we hope in the end the joke isn't on us!!! ....Having an almost eviction notice at our door was a bit excessive... just hope it doesn't cost us in the end??
What would we do and where would we go, as we are on a limited disability income to start with, and who only can afford so much..
