I still pay for cable TV, print out plane tickets, read the newspaper and watch Jeopardy. Yes, I like wallpaper in a bathroom and shag carpet in a bedroom. Yes, I use emojis too much. I leave too many voicemails. I know these are the things that boomers do and I know that younger people find them hilarious. Please don’t ridicule me, it’ll be your turn one day. Technically, I’m not a boomer. I was born in 1965, one year past the official deadline…

When rumors began circulating years ago that a certain blue police box time machine might be getting an accessible makeover, my interest was more than piqued.

That would mean people like me with SMA and other disabilities could become The Doctor’s companions…

But there are many other ways, and a lot of other factors to consider in order to make a place barrier-free. It is not as easy as putting solutions on existing infrastructure, because in the first place, the needs of PWDs must already be considered in planning our infrastructure, buildings, and overall urban design…
