I am not a WDW newbie, or even a newbie to WDW in a wheelchair, but I am new to the GAC. I did not need one before, but now I am concerned because my disability has increased in severity and changed.

Here is my problem: I cannot be bumped. My disease has made me ultra sensitive, to noise as well as touch. If someone bumps me, they may dislocate my joints (really not kidding) and if someone bumps my arms or legs, they go numb for an hour, then hurt a lot (think of a major funny-bone injury, except my skin).

My stamina is next to nothing (even with my wheelchair) and i have bathroom issues (not much warning, and i have to go every hour). I am concenred about lines longer than 30 minutes or so. Also, i would like to avoid mobs (like the really wide queues and pre-shows), because i am more likely to get hit there.

Do you think the GAC can help me, or not? I want to do as much as I can, and i don't want to skip lines, but I have my wedding/honeymoon in Disney in October, so I want it to be perfect!

If someone wants to email or PM me with info, I know we try not to post too much on these boards about specific GAC situations. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
