Hi all.
I have probably said all of this somewhere here already, but poking around Right Move and Zoopla trying to work out where we can afford and trying to work out whether the places we can afford are big enough over the last couple of weekends has brought all this rather sharply into focus.
So, to rehearse the argument OT and architect say we need to move house - existing place purchased two years before diagnosis (we are owner occupiers) has too small plot area / room sizes - I'm really depressed about it - that's depressed of the repressed anger sort.
Building works on existing place cannot achieve enough space if I end up in a powered wheel chair and we do not have that money anyway.
We need to move in such a way that transaction costs (stamp duty etc) plus any costs of works going in have to come out of equity in existing house - so way from the community we know and mostly love.
I'm developing slowly - have 50% of left arm and 90% of right arm remaining plus leg fasciculations almost 5 years after losing pinch grip in left hand.
Question to the group - is implied assumption by OT that I will end up in a big powered wheelchair correct enough to drive this move?
