I am looking for some advice. First a little background.
I am a 63yo female with a C5-7 incomplete sci. That makes me incomplete quadriplegic since 2003.
Here's the question. I have some very good friends and we've traveled together every year for the past twenty years. Obviously we've all aged to the point where were 63, 66 and 67. My girlfriends are in great shape, healthy and fit. I've noticed over the last year though that it getting a little more challenging to travel. I'm a lot of work. I walk short distances using a walker, but I'm not able to take care of luggage lifting my wheelchair, etc, so that falls to my friends. I also think that I hinder their activities like hiking, kayaking and more.
Anyway. I know when I talk to them about not going on our next outing to the Keys they will be sad and maybe try to change my mind. Am I being too sensitive? Please help my figure out how to tell them that I am not going on vacation with them this time.
I look f/w to hearing from you.
Thanks, Chris
