Wheelchair for mobility
Donation protected
Following my fracture my right leg is 3 inches shorter then my left. It curves now towards my other leg. Due to multiple surgeries and much scarring, I am left with neuropathy that at times makes it impossible for me to tell where my foot is when stepping. The pain and neuropathy make walking for more then short distances (like bedroom to bathroom) difficult. I have had my current chair for 6ish years. And the seat has deteriorated. I keep a towel tucked in the seat to support my pelvis and keep my lower body kinda straight.
For me to maintain independence and mobility, I am chair dependent. I am also a 6’ tall woman that weighs 225 lbs with long legs and complex seat needs. Medicare just doesn’t touch a chair that meets my need.
I hate asking but I really need a new wheelchair. To get one fit to me is really spendy. I do not want to
lose more
mobility. If you can help. I thank you.
