I agree hole heartidly with Denise and everyone on this subject. We are all
here to help. Even though I am now in Southern California, I was a born and
raised Chicagoen. I had my first mobility training in grammar school and
most of the rest of my training in Highschool. It is so important to have
excellent travel skills. Even though you are south of Chicago, you are in a
good area with public transportation. Hopefully, you will get in touch with
a rehab counsler who can get you proper mobility training.
Good luck to you.

Good Morning Kayla,
Sharon Howerton has given you good advice about getting more mobility
training. It is really one of the best things you can do for yourself. And
as other federationists have said, we really are here to help.
Good luck.
