When I was growing up, there were double amputees walking down the street with two iron or padded gloves tying a box to their stumps so they wouldn’t hurt their palms. A wheelchair was so luxurious for a poor person that we kept bus tickets or soda caps because, according to urban legend, they said they would give it to someone in need with 10,000.
In 1963, that world premiered Amputee prankster Manuel Summers, “From Pink to Yellow,” which is said to be his best film. They were two love stories. Rose, in adolescence; yellow, in old age. A wheelchair inmate died in a nursing home, and all the elderly wanted to get in a wheelchair and try. The entertainment aspect of the wheelchair was imagined when even the disabled (I use archaism for the period setting) didn’t have them.
Now, reduced mobility is so common that chairs disguised as motorcycles, dressed as golf carts, driven by grandparents from a grandson’s mixer, roll between us on sidewalks, parks, and squares. Trendy is the postpartum presidency of Ana Obregón and Luis Melgar, secretary of the Spanish embassy in China, author of “The Stork Came from Miami,” and one of 10 senior diplomats to lease a woman’s womb. The puerperal seat for non-pregnant women attracts attention, but the male and virgin Pope have a maternity seat among the 24 seats in the helping god’s ceremonial traveling park. (Gestatoria means it has to be carried in arms, which is what happens to these creatures who now additionally need to be transported in wheelchairs).
The high infant mortality rate of 15% a century ago was not due to mothers falling while taking their babies outside for the first time. The wheelchair for mothers with and without a belly belongs to the lawyers who sue in the event of an accident in the hospital space, not on the advice of a doctor. This is called defensive medicine, and the patient is the doctor. Another thing that comes with these advances from Florida and 49 other states.
