You gotta see this guy running! Now I doubt I can or will be able to run, but I would definitely be able to walk so much better with this leg component. I will know Friday what my chances are of getting it covered. So wish me luck!

That is pretty cool.

Pam,

This looks great. I hope things will work out for you to get one.

Thanks everyone! I will keep you posted on what the insurance says and hopefully things will work out so I can get out of the wheelchair. :D

I must say again how exciting this is...any idea when you might here back from them?

I had to change my appt to next week so it will be sometime then, something came up and I can't make tomorrow's appt. I can't wait to see what they will say, but it has to wait until thursday or friday next week. :)

If insurance tries to deny you then we will have to raise the money.
Or something else. Just keep on thinking its going to happen.

Thanks Donna! :D I really have a hope to get OUT of this chair, I hope I can make it happen NOW before I am 45 or 50. So I can get in better shape physically NOW rather then just slowly over time, to speed it up a little by walking. :D

Dear Pam,
I looked at your links but I still don't understand much.
What are the new legs like?
I mean -- they seem to have computer technology.
