I walk on my own around the house but use one crutch at school and pretty much everywhere outside of the house. I get tired VERY easily and cannot stand/walk for long periods of time because my legs and feet hurt. I have a few more years until college but I’m getting worried. There is no way I’m going to be able to walk around a huge college. I can’t use a manual wheelchair because my arms get tired just as fast as my legs. My mom thinks I should just go to a small college and walk with my crutch, but I’m thinking “How small is small and will it be small enough to save the little stamina I have?” A power wheelchair would be a dream come true, but there’s no way that insurance would cover it for someone who can walk on their own like me. Any suggestions?

P.S: I need something not too expensive-my family is middle class and we can’t afford an expensive powerchair or something else.
