A couple who had always enjoyed long walks together were devastated when the wife was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Walking became harder, but the husband was determined; he built a rickshaw, allowing him to pull his wife on their favorite walking routes and keep their shared pastime alive.
Michigan natives Rick Dorothy, 64, and Jan Dorothy, 57, have been married for 27 years and cherish their long walks together. It was during those brief moments of “alone time” that they shared their woes, talked about what made them happy, and planned trips together to alleviate the stresses of life.
