ElderHelpers Questions & Answers

I need help with rides to the many, many doctors i now see, to the blood tests that seem endless and a ride now and then to get groceries. i am not totally disabled, just do not have a car. in the past i have used my bicycle to do most of these things, even a ride of 10+ miles worked for me. but that was before my heart attack in sept. 2012. that increased the # of doctors and must have injured my legs because they hurt a lot even for short rides. i find the "fee" i would have to pay just to contact a volunteer "scary" at best. i do not have much money so i must be so careful when i spend it. so my question is, "how valid is this organization? if anyone has experience or knowledge of it, please let me know at rodbert@tampabay.rr.com. thank you in advance for any insites you may have. sincerely, roger (67 years old and trying my best to get by) I need help with rides to the many, many doctors i now see, to the blood tests that seem endless and a ride now and then to get groceries. i am not totally disabled, just do not have a car. in the past i have used my bicycle to do most of these things, even a ride of 10+ miles worked for me. but that was before my heart attack in sept. 2012. that increased the # of doctors and must have injured my legs because they hurt a lot even for short rides. i find the "fee" i would have to pay just to contact a volunteer "scary" at best. i do not have much money so i must be so careful when i spend it. so my question is, "how valid is this organization? if anyone has experience or knowledge of it, please let me know at rodbert@tampabay.rr.com. thank you in advance for any insites you may have. sincerely, roger (67 years old and trying my best to get by)
