No, my second comment was in regard to a situation before I was unable to walk.

Sorry to confuse you. Rowan and I have had a lot of medical appointments ... just about every day of the week. For a week, I was unable to walk to them or drive to them. With the potential for that situation to continue for another 6 weeks (broken hip). Fortunately it was only a week.

Prior to that, when I enquired about getting to these various appointments, they assumed that all their patients could drive and would be driving, and the idea of another method of transportation confused them. Knowing that, I rather doubt they would be able to offer a solution for being unable to walk or drive.
