Akua,
Grasping at straws here, but maybe you can find some local kid to
pick up groceries for you? Just a thought.

You're fortunate. That's sadly not an option here.
If anyone knows of a place in my city, I welcome it, but other than that
I must say that I'm very taken aback that my report of the
unavailability of something is met with
more tasks.... as if I have not already, sought, looked, asked.
"Surely it must..." It doesn't here. If you know where it does, I
welcome the information. If not, I bristle at the obvious.
I met a entrepreneur who was starting a delivery business--- he was
delivering my order from an Indian restaurant. He confirmed that few
restaurants offered delivery, hence his business to
deliver for restaurants. I asked him about grocery delivery--- not
something the culture deems important. He knew of none. (He's a
native, I've only lived here the length of my TM).
I live in an 23- story apartment buidling designated for the disabled
and elderly. My state of being is new to me, but not to them. I
searched and could not find., I asked and no one had an answer. I
lost a lot of weight between the lack of anything remotely edible or
healthy at the nursing home and my finding my way in this apartment.
As my short term PT said, the less to have to move by hand.
The management office offered the $20/hour plus gas person and the
onsite twice weekly rip off lady.
There are other "experts" the Center for Diability Rights, the Center
for Independent Living. Neither knew of such services.
