Diane - Good news about your son. Not so good news about your husband. At least with all the extensions, unemployment will be in force for another year or so.
Audrey - Cause you are in england and that is the way it is supposed to be!
Donna - Now will your insurance pay for a new chair for you? Have you checked Craigslist in your area? I told you about that almost new one here that they paid $5,600 for and were asking $450. They seem to have quite a few of them on Craigslist because of the shipping logistics. You might be able to get a real deal, even if you have to travel a bit to get one.
Another source for these are nursing homes. They have oodles of regular wheelchairs to give away (which is where I got mine free that I keep in case of an emergency). I know on occasion, the families just donate the power chairs and they are available.
Now that I have the new knees I can get around fairly well although my left hip is giving me problems which I hope can be resolved with an injection after I see the Dr. in December. I did use a riding cart at Meijer the other day but this was after a long day of shopping and my hip was just throbbing.
Adrian - Thanks for the pretty card. Call my cell and I will not answer it, but it will leave a missed call number, then I will have yours for Ike to put in my phone! I want to know how you are feeling!!!!!
