Congrats Wendy!
I too broke down and asked my MD how I go about getting my card and she smiled, reached into her closet and pulled out a paper, filled in a section and in under 60 seconds she handed it to me and as soon as the visit was done I went to the only place in town to pick up my cane before going to get my card and was told my insurance would not pay for it so I went 10 feet over to a thrift store, found a good black sturdy cane that was a perfect fit for 2 bux and 22.00 later had a pernament handicap placard in my hand and used it right away and it felt so secure and safe!
