I need to vent (Xposted to disability as well)

I get my mental & physical health care @ a community health center. They do not own the building, so when whoever did decided to upgrade the building and parking the center lost ALL the parking spaces, including the handicapped ones IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. There is a parking lot 1/4 mile away and I CANNOT walk that far even using my rolling walker. I am so upset and pissed right now. I drove around for 30 minutes hoping I could find a parking spot that I could use, no luck. I called and cancelled my very very needed mental health appointment cause I can't get into the building. I could weep right now. The receptionist got me my case managers msg line and I left a weepy msg. I bet a get some phone calls tomorrow, but for today, this sucks.

I hope your case manager gets back to you tomorrow and offers an appointment and a way to facilitate your getting into the building. Please let me know tomorrow.

2pm my time and no return call. I would have respected even a "hey have to figure this out, I'll be back on Tuesday." I'm not happy.

In any medical profession, that is just not an excuse. Hope you hear something soon.

I thought buildings were required to have a certain number of parking spaces, including handicap.
