First are you aware of the system of walkable corridors, under street level? scooters/power chairs are welcome and usable there. You can rent one in the subway level, just down from cafeteria.

More that I don't necessarily want to just go around the hospital and my hotel and that's it (although it does seem like there aren't a lot of things in Rochester that aren't the hospital or hotels) -- on bad days (which I suspect these will be because of the pace and the earliness of the appointments) having wheels helps me be able to not be a) exhausted and b) bored out of my mind. Although I guess that's a follow-up question: *is* there anything in Rochester during the winter to do other than hospital appointments and huddle up at home with 3 sweaters on?

@lofturthunk, I do not know what there is to do in Rochester for a young person in the winter.

The following people might be more familiar with Rochester. Maybe one of them can shed some light on this question about winter and activities in Rochester, that you could navigate with your wheels.
@waterboy, @jamienolson, @lisalucier, @JustinMcClanahan, @kanaazpereira, Do you have any resource or suggestions to share?

Thank you,
Rosemary
