Title: OMG what have I unleashed on the world!!!!
Post by: Cindy on August 27, 2017, 05:16:08 AM
After my waltz with Cancer I can no longer push a wheel chair so we have got the Forumula 1, Indie 500, Drag racing, 4WDriving, Hot rodding, turbocharged stunt performing vehicle for my wife.

So I ask, where shall we go out for the day?

<She has not been out with me for over a year from her nursing home as I have not been able to cope physically after the damage to my shoulders>

We got to the park and she disappeared in a cloud of mud (can you have a cloud of mud? It's winter so we don't have dust this week in Adelaide).

I found her feeding ducks.

She had gone down the path, over a bridge, did a wheelie and .... had a smile all over her face.

I just posted to give you a cheer. When you are feeling rough, there are good days as well.

Cindy

Those turbocharged 4WD chairs are scary! I see a lot of them around town. Some even look better than a Harley Davidson. FREEDOM MACHINES!

I wouldn't laugh. I've seen one guy race up the ramp to the local RSL club, at speeds that could have killed some unwitting person exiting the club.

I think they should be reminded of speed limits.  :police:

That's awesome, Cindy! Your wife is an inspiration, and your post this morning made me smile and gave me a lift. I also cry when I read or see life and joy happening in people in spite of facing something as serious as cancer.
Blessings!

Aww, that is beautiful.  Bringing a smile to your wife's face has brought a smile to mine.  :)

There is NOTHING like bringing a smile the the wife's face. I am sure it is one of the best things to see. I know it is for me.

Cindy, only you can bring tears of happiness and joy from telling a story of a "Forumula 1, Indie 500, Drag racing, 4WDriving, Hot rodding, turbocharged stunt performing vehicle"! Thank you for sharing your story, I can not begin to imagine the joy and freedom that you gave your wife with that acquisition.

She looks so happy feeding the ducks. I am glad she can now get out.

Great Post :)

We have the world record in the UK for the worlds fastest mobility scooter, look in the Guinness Book of Records. Don't know about duck feeding records.
