This is kind of a downer question but, something that is on my mind, lately. How much longer will I be able to live, in my home, on my own?

I have my Annual PCP appointment, in a couple of weeks and so, I decided to make the perilous trip to my garage to see if my Minivan/scooter was in good working order. I did it, but when I got back into the house, I cried..

The whole experience was sooooo scary. I didn't think I would make it down the three steep stairs to the garage, into and out of the Minivan and then back up the stairs, again. I made it, thanked God and sat down in my scooter and bawled..

I should have moved into a more handicap friendly home, long ago, but wanted to stay here. Now you know why I don't go out very often..

The good news is, the MV started right up.. I wish Docs would do home visits...I'd pay extra....I'd even cook his lunch..LOL.

My DD has promised she would not insist that, I go to a home, but what am I going to do? Are there any other answers for me and others, who life alone, with MS? Any Ideas that will keep me in my home, will be greatly appreciated.
