DH got us tickets to go to DL in about 1.5 weeks. We’re 3 months post incident but I’m still dealing with bad swelling in my ankle after a sprain/torn fascia while on vacation. I can walk with no boot or crutch but I still try to take multiple breaks to get my foot up. If I don’t do this, I get massive swelling which is painful but not necessarily harmful. Like it will set back my mobility a few days but won’t cause further injury if that makes sense.
I’m just nervous. I can stay home but DH might not take the kids if I don’t go. I can probably use a wheelchair but that seems like overkill? I have used crutches for weeks now! I’m mostly thinking it would be nice to use IF the wheelchair had a place to rest my leg. Seating at Disney is not always the most conducive to elevating your foot!
Has anyone used one? Did you get any pushback? I realize I might get side eye but I can live with that. I’m not trying for an unfair advantage. Also, having never used one before, do the Disney wheelchairs have leg extensions? If not I’m not sure there’s any advantage as sitting with my leg down is as bad, possibly even worse than being on my feet or walking!
Would love your thoughts!
