I am not sure if I should give "baby daddy" yet another chance at attending an appointment with me. This is for a pediatric cardiologist.
Background- BD (Baby daddy) has attended 3 appointments out of 4 pregnancies. 2 miscarriage- 1 dead …) I am now in my last trimester.
He has "bailed" at the last minute on 3 appointments- (2 back to back- when I was giving him another chance. I already told him last month I was not extending the invitation to be with us at appts- as didnt need the drama of cant go- cause "blalala" was more important. )
Things he has done which make me want to exclude him are:
- Bailing at last minute
- when I was taken by ambulance- he didnt show up (on his day off) for 7 hrs! (When he DID get there he told me the only reason he came was cause he knew I’d be PI$$ED if he didnt show- then tried to eat/drink all my stuff (Had not eaten most of the day.)
- left me with no vehicle/keys- he has 5
- I have had to walk to the doctors- 3 times- 5 miles (once while miscarrying cause he bailed- once in sub zero weather- and the other day- when I SHOULD BE ON BED REST
- Has done NOTHINg for this baby except complain when he needs to buy him something- he has spent umm- $20 on him
- I am suppose to be on bed rest- but he wont do the laundry – make any food. Helped me grocery shop once- which I now do in those powered wheel chairs. He even tries to pressure me to go on his MOTORCYCLE and take a concealed weapon permit class with HIM!
- SCREAMED at me that I CAUSED the problem with the baby (I take good care of myself- it is just one of those things) and especially when you already DO blame yourself (later he apologized.) I probably should not have told HIM ANYTHING- as I DO feel if he wants to know- then he should GO.
- He has never apologized to me for bailing last minute- says it is my fault- that I am the one making the big deal/has a problem with it.
So I/ we have an appt today with a specialist for the baby’s problem. And BD works right by the hospital. He said to call him and he will meet me/us. I told him I did not need him there or want him there- and he knew that last month when he bailed on me/us. So he says I had better call him.
Should I still be extending the "invitaion" to him to attend?
Girl NO, let him stay at work and do whatever, if he has done all these things to you, imagine what he’ll do today
I am elderly but not disabled and have to walk long distances. I wonder if it takes less energy to hand propel a wheelchair than walking. I could use a folding chair which would be no problem on public transport. Also the chair should make carrying shopping more easy. An electric scooter is not practical on public transport.
It depends entirely on what kind of upper body strength you have and what your weight is. It could go either way.
Electric scooters come in all sizes. I have used them with little problem on public transit in Washington DC, Chicago, San Francisco, and New York – to name a few places. There are smaller travel scooters which might be all you need.
It is not true – use it or lose it. If you over do it – you lose it for days at a time. Better to use it when you need it so you can walk when you want to.
Lincoln, Neb. — Blake Werts loves hunting, fishing and laughing with his family and friends. The Scott Middle School 7th grader from Lincoln, Neb., doesnt let cerebral palsy limit his activities. Blake loves to get outside with his brother, Bryce, and his friends. Now, thanks to Larry the Cable Guys Git-R-Done Foundation making a $25,000 donation to The Hope First Equipment Fund at Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital, Blake can finally get out into the fields of Nebraska to hunt for pheasants, quail and maybe even a deer.
Blake is a great kid and Im glad we could help him out. I feel sorry for the pheasants though. With those new ATV wheels, Blake will be baggin his limit, said Larry the Cable Guy.
Working with a wheelchair expert from Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital, where Blake gets outpatient treatment each week, the Git-R-Done Foundation donation funded a specialized ATV wheelchair that will allow Blake to move over all types of terrain. It even manages in snow, which is a good thing considering the 30+ inches that has covered eastern Nebraska this winter. In addition, Hanger Seating and Mobility discounted the specialized wheelchair and fabricated a gun mount and ramp to access Blakes hunting trailer to help on his hunts.
I thank Larry for this awesome ATV, said Blake. Im going to go everywhere with it. I want to drive it to school!
The X8-Extreme by Innovations in Motion is a powerful, electric motorized vehicle with 14 knobby tires for excellent traction. Driving on sand, soft ground, snowy or wet ground, or even slippery surfaces presents no problems to the Extreme. This is made possible by the patented passive steering system, a breakthrough in wheelchair design. Blake controls the wheelchair through a joystick that provides 360 degree turning, acceleration and reverse options.
Rehabilitation is about helping people do the things they enjoy. We are delighted to help kids like Blake through a variety of adaptive sports and recreation activities and workshops. Many people dont realize all the options that are available in adaptive sports, like wheelchair basketball, soccer and rugby, fishing, golf, sled hockey, hand cycling and horseback riding, said Marsha Lommel, president and CEO of Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital.
We thank Larrys Git R Done Foundation for their generosity. Words cannot express our gratitude for their perfect gift for Blake. Blake is very active outside and this will really increase his mobility. This is a great day, said Kevin Werts, Blakes dad.
