Happy new year! I've not posted in months... ano na mga nangyari?
Busy yung December which is fine. I had fun.
I'm going to get another round of blood tests done early March. Ready na yung doctor's order from my home-service consult with an MD I got thru the AIDE app last month... actually, yung previous blood tests ko, dun ko din na-book. Laking tulong yung AIDE app para sa mga taga-Metro Manila! As in! -- I want to write about my experiences using the AIDE app which were all positive so far, pati yung same-day Rx medicine deliveries were great - they use Grab! Mahal ang blood tests at consultation, pero sobrang sulit naman at bawas anxiety kung hindi ka talaga makalabas ng bahay.
Naisip ko na I want to write about hotels - and how they treat guests in wheelchairs. Medyo madami nakong naipon na kwento from Alabang, Mandaluyong at Makati (nakwento ko na yung GoHotels sa Bacolod dati na very accessible kasi proper ramps are built around the building! As in tama ang height at slope nila kaya they are very safe to use. I loved it.).
Generally, the people/staff have been kind, helpful, respectful... A+ talaga staff sa mga hotels that I've stayed at, regardless if they are 5-star or transient. Kung meron lang akong napansin, hindi sa staff kundi sa accessibility ng entrance para sa mga naka-wheelchair. Walang problema yung malalaking hotels, pero yung maliliit... yung iba meron. Specifically, Azumi and Hop Inn sa Alabang na malapit sa Molito/ATC na napuntahan ko so far: Stairs ang entrance nila. And if nakapangalan sayo ang booking, you have to personally check in.
It was impossible to use the wheelchair to enter their parking area kasi very steep talaga - you need a car. Anyway, ang ginawa ko is nagpa-drop off kami sa loob ng parking area tabi ng elevators and then, used the elevator papuntang lobby to check in... If you have a vehicle, okay lang but if wala at nag-gra-Grab lang? Well, plan ahead talaga. Obvious na maliit ang area at sa planning/construction na yun... But basically, puwede naman sa guests na gumagamit ng wheelchair, mahirap lang pumasok at lumabas. Baka nga gawan ko nalang ito ng hiwalay na post.
