Default Scooter Store

My Doc and I have talked it over and because of the ongoing severity of my neuropathy in my feet and legs that she has decided to assist me in getting a scooter from the Scooter Store. You may have seen the commercials on TV. My insurance company should cover it at 100 percent. If not it will be free to me. It is the 4 wheel type not the 2 wheel kind. They design it to fit you.

I do not want to lose my mobility completely. I have thought about the hoverround but I like the Scooter Store better plus they are local for me.

I was wondering if Allen is aware of this and if maybe he has tried. They are great. More powerful than a wheelchair but just as comfortable, no more comfortable than a wheelchair. Easier to get in and out of. They come with free stair ramps and hoist for vehicles if needed. I have been thinking of him alot. If he hasn't he should. We all know the trouble he has had with his chair.

The scooter is great for outdoors and the battery last a very long time. Anyways. Thats all for now. Chin Up!!!!

Hey

I have an awesome electric wheelchair... it is brilliant and has given me my life back.. it is made so it doesn't vibrate/ hurt as much. Also electric tilt/ recline, electric articulating leg rests, head rest which actually hold my head straight erm and loads of other gadgets (including electric buttons for opening all the doors in uni..)....

It has made such a difference to my life!!!!!!!!! I have been unable to walk since November 02 so it is BRILLIANT to be able to go out on my own for the first time in almost 4 years...... (before I was in a selection of manuals... including 2 very posh sports chairs (that then had their street cred ruined as lats and headrest and everytthing else I need was added)...

good luck with the wheels - they make such a difference to your live...

however..... scotters are harder to manouvre around peoples houses/ and rely on your hands being able to use a push pull thing appropriatly...

Anyway! enjoy..........
