Job Prospects for disabled & diabetic

Having T2 diabetes and becoming somewhat disabled recently (muscle loss, nerve damage, etc), what aviation related jobs exist for someone like me?

I can't get around very easily, but I can drive, type and (I think) all my lamentable cuflacties seem to be okay, apart from sometimes forgetting - oh what are those things, you know, those things I'm quite good at typing - ahhh - no - mmm - ah - mmm - ahh yes, words.

I'd love a job that got me into the air sometimes, but what could I do that would be useful?

Ever thought about becoming self employed?

Why not have a go at Net work marketing? There are some various (one I am thinking of starts with Kl) well established (85 + years) and reputable. Work the hours you want and how hard you want.

Yes. The, now dead, business owes about £20k - no intention of doing that again.
