[Blind-rollers] some good news to share

[AgapeDEW at aol.com]

Lucy, I forgot to mention I am in my third year of college using the  
wheelchair in Human Services and am buzzing through campus faster then the other  
students...especially on Monday mornings, when they can hardly get out of 
bed  let alone walk fast to class lol.  I do have personal aides in my home 
that  all have had mobility training to help guide me when I do not have my 
guide  cane.  They took me through campus to help me navigate to classrooms,  
restrooms, and elevators.  A hospital is a good place to work on mobility  
in the community as this is some place you will be using a great deal and 
will  want to feel comfortable in this public place.  deb

What  type of chair are you getting?  What types of chairs do people  
recommend?  And, what are the advantages and disadvantages of each?   Thanks for 
your help and congratulations!

Hi, all,
Sub says it  all.
The approval went through for my power chair and I'll be getting it at  the 
end of August and beginning of September.
I'm happy and excited.
On  the days when I hurt really bad or have just experienced a seizure upon 
not  having any physical ability to move around, I can get into my power 
chair and  just go, go, go.
Because I've not been able to get anywhere with Denver  Vocational 
Rehabilitation here in Denver, Colorado, a physical therapist named  Cindy Duff at 
Denver Health Medical is willing to come out and help out with  training if 
need be.
I've taken up her offer and do welcome it as it will  take me time to get 
used to operating a power chair.
Thoguth I'd share the  good news with you'alls.
Bibi, husband Dale and the stubron son Odie
