Reply To: Limited walking but don’t need a wheelchair yet…
I’ve never been to Japan before, but I do have low stamina. I get very tired easily even though I use a power wheelchair for mobility.
Set up a schedule where you don’t push yourself beyond your limits. Japan isn’t disappearing anytime soon. (Well, unless there’s another earthquake or tsunami or Godzilla finally shows up.) Do a little bit each day. Can you take breaks mid-day at your hotel? Sure, this will spread your trip longer, but at least you won’t be putting your health at risk.
And, it doesn’t hurt to consider using a wheelchair. There’s no shame in needing to use one. Millions of us use one every day.
