Does anyone have a photo or layout of an E2 Handicap Room on RCCL's Independence of the Seas or know where to find one?

You might try posting this on Disabled Cruise Travel (under Special Interests).

I was assigned one in April. I'll see if I can find any photos. Did you have a specific question about the cabin?

I am scared because I haven't been on a cruise in ages alone and the last one was with my mom.

An HC cabin will be larger than the standard cabin of a non-HC category. The bathroom will have a "roll-in" shower and the cabin has space for turning in a wheelchair. There will be grab-bars in the shower and around the toilet...and usually a lower sink. The cabin is designed for those in wheechairs to be able to function alone, if need be.

There will also be a small "ramp" over the lip of the door to the balcony, so you can access the balcony while in a wheelchair.
