⋆ my disease, my infection ⋆
I went to an amusement park for the first time since my major fibro symptoms started and OMG.
If anyone reading loves roller coasters but fibro holds you back, go to Bush gardens. Here was my experience.
I use forearm crutches, for anyone who struggles I can't recommend these enough for days with tons of walking. I walked all over the park and normally that amount of movement would send me into a flare from hell. However with the crutches, after a 12 hour day of walking, I was only at maybe a 3 or 4 at worst!
When you get to the park go straight to the welcome desk and ask to sign up for the RAP (Ride accessibility program) and ask if they can let you sit instead of waiting in line. What they will do is give you a sheet of paper with every ride on it. Go to ride exits or where the disabled sign is and hand your paper to a ride operator. If the wait is longer than 10 mins they will stamp your sheet and give you a scheduled time to come back to board so you can go sit down somewhere. This alone saved me so much pain.
When it came to my crutches, because you get in through the exit it makes transfers so smooth and they let you get settled before opening the main gates.
Me and my mother went on a monday so the park was pretty empty so we got to ride every ride we wanted to at least 2 times! The longest we had to wait was like 20 mins (sitting down)
The ride operators and staff were so kind and helpful, they helped me get on and moved my crutches aside, not to mention my mother being a huge help and my biggest advocate. The Rap program also applies to 4 people including yourself, so if you come with friends you don't have to ride alone.
I wanted to share my favorite ride- Pantheon, a super cool magnet coster, definitely intense. We had to sit and wait for that one for about 20 mins, when it was our turn to board the ride operator came over and asked "since we waited a long time do ya just wanna stay on for two rounds so you don't have to re board”. I said yes and my mom just looked at me like I was crazy.
After the second round both me and her were tapped out lol. Glad we did that ride last.
This experience helped my confidence so much as it proved I can still do things I love, just a bit differently. If you have hesitancy about using mobility aids and accessibility programs please try them. After the day was over I couldn't stop smiling.
Cant wait to go back.

FINALLY my first non-s/i OC update!! This is Gabby (they/them), my ride or die OC <3 They've come a long way since I made them in 2014 ( ∩´͈ ᐜ `͈∩) They're an emo (obviously) makeup artist and hair stylist! They're a very chatty and friendly person (as their name would suggest), but they're also a bit of a cynic and Debbie Downer... They tend to make jabs at things they don't like a lot -- particularly PDA and lovey-dovey couples.
