Hi everyone.
I, too, agree about our kid's sporting events. My daughter runs track and cross country. I try my very best to go to all of her meets. I show up with my TENS unit, pillow, gel heating pad and lots of medicine! Most meets are at least an hour and a half away, then just walking to the field and sitting on metal benches are torture. It's also very humiliating to have my kids carry my stuff, and guide me walking. I know that they're just dying of emberrasment (sp?) and would like to crawl under a rock. I've pretty much stopped going anywhere that I don't have to. Just too much trouble and too humbling. Before RSD I was an avid runner. Lacrosse coach, baseball coach, type "A" hyper personality. My average work day was 18 hours, all on my feet. Now I spend my days on the floor, stretching and watching TV.

After walking to a field, and wondering how the heck I'm going to hobble back to the car, I've often longed for one of those scooter/chair things....one of these days I'll treat myself !
