This is your periodic reminder that ambulatory wheelchair users exist. Many folks think wheelchairs are only for those who can't walk at all, or folks who can only take a couple steps.

Wheelchairs and electric scooters are used due to pain, weakness, balance issues, orthostatic intolerance, etc.

Purple t-shirt with the message "ambulatory wheelchair users exist." Under the text there's an illustration, from left to right, of a stick figure getting up from a wheelchair, then an arrow, then the stick figure walking.

@ahimsa_pdx As someone who has a dynamic disability and chronic fatigue flare-ups, and can barely get around the house some days, I absolutely must have this tee. Even if it’s just as a conversation/argument starter to set ignorant people straight.

@ahimsa_pdx @philsherry She needs to make one where the wheelchair user is a different stick figure to the other one and the chair user is carrying a stick 😉👍
