Does anyone who uses mobility aids still have trouble with snow? I'm specifically thinking about cane users, but wheelchair users and people who use other types of mobility aids can answer too.
It's just that I usually have issue with my balance, slippy footing even with support, ice/snow compacting under the foot of my stick and it all adds up to making it feel impossible.
But the way my mother (able bodied) talks about having no problem walking out there, I'm wondering if other mobility aid users still have trouble in weather that able bodied people claim to be fine in.
I've only ever had bad experiences walking in snow and icy conditions but no one is taking me seriously so I'm starting to doubt if it's even common among people like me
