In no part of the world is the aunt expected to move 30 blocks to meet the
nephew.

No culture would find that acceptable.
It is especially wrong for him to know that you have current mobility issues.
Then to give you advice re walker is worse.


At best, he is a weird guy.


If he does not want to get his own *** across town, then he is supposed to
pay for a cab for you.
He knows the mores for this but he chooses not to
follow them.

(Sorry that I am feeling protective of you --- or generally bitchy.)

Sorry.
