I'm 76 years old and have had MS for quite awhile. I wanted to move to a building with an elevator. I get around condo using a walker. At one time, I was able to carry my walker or rollator down three flights of steps. Husband doesn't want to move. I'm very depressed - husband called the cops on me on my birthday

Have you had a conversation about why your living situation is not working for you any longer. If he still is unable to see why it is important for your safety, maybe he come visit you at your new living space. Don't stay if he can't support your mobility needs. My husband is the same. I need to write what I'm going to say and why do I can get my point of view and needs heard. Can you get your family on board to sway his stubborn attitude? You are worth it! Your safety needs should be top priority! A fall down stairs can put you in long term care or kill you.

Oh yall. I'm definitely going to say big giant prayers for yall. This sounds, well, so many things. ๐Ÿ’ฉ
That's how I feel about people not listening to the needs of the people who are disabled.
Dang you just want to scream ๐Ÿ˜ฑ.
I think she's right @A MyMSTeam Member. You should write down how you are feeling. Maybe reading it instead of arguments may help
