The Roller and the Stroller
The Roller and the Stroller is a podcast by two best friends. Josiah, the Roller, was born with Cerebral Palsy and navigates the world in a wheelchair, alongside his best friend, Kelly, the Stroller. We discuss living with a disability, adapting to surroundings in a wheelchair, and the challenges we face together. We talk about things like going to concerts, travelling, everyday tasks, and sports, but also get into deeper topics like religion, self-talk, medical needs, and some of the frustrations of using a wheelchair. We give insight on how to enjoy life with a disability and share advice on how to understand someone with a disability.

I don't know how to live this wheelchair life - even after 29 years! Most people, including us, would think getting a parking pass for a disability would be simple, but guess again. Today we talk about the issues Josiah faces while trying to get this all sorted out. Houston, we have a problem.

Doctors and Physical Therapists and Manufacturers, oh my! There are many "steps" and hoops to "jump" through to get a wheelchair. Josiah has had 5 wheelchairs in his lifetime, and today he "walks" us through how you get a custom one. Puns for days!

You've got a friend in me! And by "me," we mean Racer - Josiah's childhood service dog! Racer was the goodest boy who helped Josiah with tasks in his teenage years, but now Josiah is on the fence about getting another pet. What do you think?

EMOTIONAL DAMAGE! Josiah has gone through physical therapy for his #cerebralpalsy - but the first time he did, it left him with some trauma. :( It took him a long time to go back to PT, but the second time around wasn't too bad. How did it help him? PT Around and Find Out!
