Guest   #37 Posted May 29, 2017 All the sanctimonious know-alls, that are so clever that they can look at a person and decide what is wrong with them and if they need a blue badge, should surely be working for NHS. They would save us fortune.  If somebody seems perfectly able bodied, explain to me why they should have a blue badge. Genuine question.

Just because someone seems able bodied to you doesn't mean they are. Genuine answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
wrinkly67 Â Â 10 #39 Posted May 29, 2017 If somebody seems perfectly able bodied, explain to me why they should have a blue badge. Genuine question. My husband is 76 and apart from the white hair, slim and relatively upright. You could be forgiven for thinking him fit. In fact, he has atrial fibrillation, has had quadruple heart by-pass, has bronchiectasis - a lung disease - and has suffered a stroke which has impaired his vision. All making life more difficult. So, should you ever see us using our blue badge, please don't always judge a book by its cover. It's quite hurtful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
