I love this! Ambulatory disabilities aren't seen all that often. Big picture advice: be careful that him choosing a mobility advice isnt constantly phrased as a negative. "He needs this today because hes weak" versus "hes going to give himself the extra help today" makes a world of difference.
The way I have been doing it in the story is just mentioning it. Like; Thorn decided to go with his crutches today to school, careful about the ice patches. Or something similar like that. Just because he needs them doesn't mean its negative!!
Yes yes yes! Sounds like youre absolutely on the right track. If you ever need specifics about crutches or wheelchairs, too, Im here for that.
