AFTON – A normal day for anyone usually consists of an alarm clock coupled with a cup of coffee and maybe a brisk walk to the car to start it and head to work.

The simple task of getting out of bed and being able to go outside and check the mail, get to garden to do some weeding – having the freedom to do what we chose with our 24 hours is something many people take for granted.

Unfortunately, this isn’t the case for a 70-year old widow in Afton, New York.

Ginny Nelson has been dealing with two bad knees, falling on ice some four or five times in the past year – all while trying to maneuver a rickety old porch on her trailer home in Afton.
