    Would it be easier to move to a property that fits your needs better?

    Why don't you first look into whether you would qualify for a grant towards the work from the local council as you are disabled, if you haven't already done so?
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.
