If you read the OP, you will:
1. Realize he is a she (mama.sylvia);

I think this is a good topic to share. A trailer is a good option for step issues, but the hitching could be problematic, some comments on how to simplify that would be helpful.
Having to work around health issues AND multiple occupants can also make things more difficult to work out. With a single occupant, the corner bed is much less of an issue.
For me, I have not reached the point of limited abilities, but I chose my class C with the future in mind. For now, I happily enjoy my cabover bunk. When I can no longer safely climp in and out of it, I can move to my foldover couch and use the cabover to store the bedding during the day.
My bathroom is small, but fits my size fairly comfortably and I could do some minor work to open it up a bit more if needed.
One thing that I found important was the ability to get to and from the bathroom quickly and easily. Having to maneuver around the other person, the bed, etc., can be disastrous.
