Hey there, I was in exactly the same situation, I had a car but couldn't drive it - most frustrating! I couldn't stand not having my freedom so changed to a car with hand controls - best thing I ever did, it's so easy to drive and doesn't restrict where I drive, motorway etc no bother. I don't need a walking stick anymore, but my feet are still numb so I've kept the hand controls because I feel more in control. Defo look into hun xx

Check out the hand controls. I haven't got them myself..........yet, but if they get you independently mobile, then it'll be a real benefit for you. Good luck.
