Becky;
See you can fly!  I would love to meet you and your humor!  If you use a wheel chair, how do you use a guide dog?  
I do not think Sophie really understands that I can not see, like her master can not see.   I sure am glad she is black, on a lite rug, or I really would be in trouble.  I call her my chalanger dog or my obstacle course!!!
Surprising, I can take her out, with my walker, but she still pulls a bit to much.    

Terry P.

Lauren, when I traveled in my manual wheelchair, the Flight Attendants folded the chair up and put it in a closet in First Class. Hey at least part of me flew in First Class, giggle. I felt so much better knowing it was
nearby, smile. I had a name for my wheelchair, "Joy Wheels."   

Becky and the golden sunshine, Hey dogs, gots her wrapped around my paw, toothy grin. Love Jake -----Original Message-----

Hi,
Oh, I didn't know it folded up too. I saw one opened but didn't know it closed.
Thanks
Lauren

The walker folds, too.  Glad you have your own chair.  Make sure your name is tagged on it.

Hi,
I decided to get a wheelchair instead of a rollator because the wheelchair folds in so it takes up less room when I am not using it. Hopefully it will take up less room on the plane, too. It cost less too. I got it on eBay. 
Thanks
Lauren

Lauren;
Have you ever tried a walker.  I use a relater walker, which has a seat, when ever I get tired.  They can be baught on Ebay for about $125 where in a medical store, they are about $500.  My insurance only covered half for my first one, so we tried ebay and got a great deal.  I will try to find you and show it to you.  It helps to take pressure of your back and your legs and feet do not hurt as much.
With my walker, I can almost keep up with Henry and Sophie, four paw drive!!!
Check with the NFB or your chapter and one should be able to find some people to assist you in getting around.  There will be volenteers at the convention.
See you at convention.

I put you down for Monday, 7/6, at 11:00-1:00.
Big chears for Lauren.  She is the first to sign up to help, in the exibit hall!

Terry Powers
