I FOUND some of Roger Lack's remarks in a recent Advertiser extremely insensitive, particularly his query as to whether large numbers of Swindonians have lost the use of their limbs simultaneously and worst of all was there a secret club you can join?

My husband was a scooter user for many years, this being his only means of getting around to do any shopping

I can assure Mr Lack that he would have much preferred to walk but, with renal failure and heart/lung problems, this was not possible.

I appreciate that his son had a painful experience on one occasion but please be thankful, Mr Lack, that you do have your own mobility the use of your legs.
