Windsor Ontario Cruiser in the Toronto Star Travel Section

Cerebral palsy doesn’t stop Windsor Ontario Canada woman from seeing the world

 

 

Read this great Toronto Star article about handicapped cruising highliting a Windsor Ontario resident. In this case with NCL.

"She has cerebral palsy and gets around in a wheelchair. Her speech is impaired. She requires help with the basics of everyday life — feeding, dressing, bathroom activities. She’s a diabetic who requires regular insulin injections. She uses several devices to communicate with people who cannot understand her speech. These include a word board and a Dynavox 5, nicknamed “V”, which speaks whatever she types into it.

But Millin, 47, loves to travel, so when she learned that a conference she regularly attends was to be held in Barcelona last July, she decided to take the opportunity to see a little bit of Europe via a cruise of the western Mediterranean. " Thestar.com
