Hi my name is Teresa and I am 20 years old.I am going on this trip with my friend Senita and her family there will be a total of 6 of us.This will be the first trip to WDW & Universal that I will be going on without my family.I only found out i was definitely going last week 
TWO weeks before the trip is. I had permission from my mom (and the money) a month or so before the trip. I had to wait to see wether or not my friend Senita's brothers gf could get the money or not she couldn't so i got her spot 
. We will be driving straight down from southeastern PA. The dates of the trip are August 5-16 PERFECT 
timing since apparently the only thing that will be closed the whole time is It's a Small World which is fine by me i don't want that song stuck in my head.
Last year I went with my family + 2 of my cousins my brother's gf at the time and my friend Ali there was a total of 8 of us.We stayed at POP and let's just say it had to be one of the worst vacations i have ever been on. I only have about 4 good memories from that 7 day long trip. And some stuff that i really wanted to do was closed like Space Mountain.
I know we are going to Universal for at least two days one of which will be almost completly taken by WWOHP
. I have NO idea where we are staying im assuming off site. I don't know if the tickets are park hoppers or even how many days they are for 
same for Universal and wether or not we are going anywhere else as well. 
I think that this is their first trip to WDW I know they have done Universal before though.
I broke my talus (foot/ankleish area) in the beginning of May and I started physical therapy a few weeks ago. I plan on bringing a wheelchair with i have never had to go to WDW with someone that needed one before so i need some info on that. I feel bad that my friend will need to help push me around but she thinks it's awesome if we get in some special lines because of it. I went to Dorney Park last tuesday and even though I know WDW and Universal are basically flat unlike that evil park
I know i won't be able to walk around all day even while wearing my boot.My dad thinks i should be able to and keeps calling me a baby.
So how do i plan for a first time handicap/non family trip while i have no idea about anything other then the dates? Oh did i mention my friend doesn't answer her cell very often. Also she lives a good 30-45mins away. What do you suggest i budget for food/incidentals per day not know if we are doing any table service meals or not? Is there any good quick card option for me so my parents could possibly send me more money if i need it? is there a western union or something simular anywhere close and easily found? Last time i had to use one was in Crete and i was really fortunate that one of the only two on the island was located in the city my P2P tour was scheduled to go to that day.
