[Blind-Rollers] New power chair has arrived

[Becky Frankeberger]

Thank you Maureen, Lauren, you all have been so helpful to me.

Have you heard of the study where, as I gather, a device is being created
through our imput a device that will call for help if we tip over. A Dr.
Rice is doing the work on this project.

Woo Hoo! Exciting! My new manual slash power chair is securely in my home.
It is Royal Blue and Black The head rest is black, the seat is black, the
back is Royal blue. The tires are royal blue and black. It is an Ultra light
hemi with E-fix wheels. Right now it is a manual as my home is to small for
the bigger E-fix wheels. I have not tried the power E-fix wheels yet. We
have a couple of oopses to fix. My wheels are very heavy making this chair
very wide and cumbersome to get around corners. I will bet I have taken a
nap in this chair every day I have had it. It is so comfortable. The chair
does not recline. I even like the foot rest. They are straight down. They
aren't on, though. 

 

It is a really nice looking chair, but they have to switch out tires. These
are two and one half inches wide. I don't have that much space to get in my
doors. If I go straight out, I clear by a half or so inch. My grandson is
going to put on my bathroom door the hinges that flatten the door to the
wall. Make sure though if you get these that there is enough room to let
your door lay flat. I can't close my studio door because there isn't enough
room for the hinge to work right, grump. But there is room in my bathroom,
smile.

 

Well, just wanted to tell you all the great news, smile.
