You might find that for a whole day in the parks you would be more comfortable if you used a wheelchair or ECV. This is what Disney recommends for anyone with stamina issues. That would mean you wouldn't have to stand for long periods and would always have a seat to hand. For attractions where ECVs are not allowed there is always the option to transfer to a wheelchair.
Many people underestimate the size of the parks and the amount of walking involved.

Don't know if we were just lucky, but when we asked at Rock'n'roller coaster if there was somewhere where I (in a wheelchair) could wait whilst DH & DS went on the ride, a very helpful cast member took them to bypass the queue so that I didn't have to wait ages for them.

Go to Guest Relations in any park and explain your needs. They will give you a pass which is appropriate for your individual situation.

We got one of these which helped and basically was a fastpass for each of the rides. Now this might sound like a Yeah Great! But we really needed it and would not have got anything really done without it. You will see what I mean when I do our trip report.

Not being pedantic but quoted verbatim from the Disney Guidebook for Guests with Disabilities:
'visit Guest Relations for current information on accessibility and services'

I am sure asking for either would get you there

we used one last year and to be honest i think it was better for everyone else in the line not us we are used to my daughter but when she has to wait for any time she starts to shout VERY LOUD and people around us look very worried like "help there is a maniac on the loose "
we found the cast members very helpful
once when we were waiting in line for a photo and autograph with tigger we were told off by the characters minder she said "havent you got one of those cards " we showed it her and she moved us to the front of the line
she told us to always use it as our little girl was obviously getting distressed by the waiting
BUT at other times when we did try to use it for character greetings they told us it was only for rides ! but something we noticed was that it was usually the male minders that refused it

hope that helps
