The point is that on the rare occasion I can get out for a walk and try to spot Flora and Fauna, it is usually in the company of one/other/or both of my dogs. I am a widower so no longer have the luxury of my wifes company although when she was alive she loved the countryside as much as I do.
Hello . I'm a wheelchair user myself and I've had a look on Google to see if there are any Wildlife groups that can accomodate people with disabilities. Maybe it would be something you can do together but you can still wander off and have some 'you' time whilst knowing your son is in capable hands?
