He has had a new knee were the bone around that should grow back stronger but below that are now getting brittle and his consultant says they way he sits on a carriage if he has to brace himself it could cause damage.   Pat Cooper Member Username: Patcooper Post Number: 7 Registered: 07-2007 Posted on Monday, 19 August, 2013 - 8:37 pm:    How does it effect him.   Janet Williams Member Username: Merlodlliw Post Number: 10 Registered: 06-2013 Posted on Monday, 19 August, 2013 - 10:20 am:    I have a friend who has post polio syndrome and has been told to give up carriage driving, I was wondering is there anyone who carriage drives with this condition and could help in advising how do they manage, so that he can continue with what he enjoys
