Wheelchair Chair Scooter question for wheelchair users...?
my right leg is paralyised and the doctors aren't really sure why. I have been using forearm crutches for the past 4 months and do quite well. but I also get tired like any human being. I am only 18. I have lots of upperbody strength because of my history as a competive swimmer. I am getting a electric scooter for longer trips (as I am very active) but I'd also like a wheelchair that I can use for shorter trips to stay active without using my legs. I have been shopping on craigslist and I have found a chair in my area for the price I am will to pay, it has everything I need, the only issue is it has a 16" seat. I know 18 is normal. I am a little on the larger side because of hormone inbalances. but I am a shorter person only 5'2. I have measured a 17in peice of paper and can sit on that confortably. my basic question is this. Do you think I can get away with a 16" seat confortably? thanks
look on ebay..
search locally--within a specified radius of your home and makes sure they will allow pick up so you don't have to pay shipping..
be sure to research the types..soome are 20 pounds heavier than others..and tire your arms out more quickly--basic hospital styles tend to be rickety
look to see if they have an abilitiesexpo or independence expo in our area so you can try some out

WheelChair Scooter!!!
Is there a handicap convention going on in Las Vegas right now?
so I work in Las Vegas and the last 2 days there has been an excessive amount of handicap people, and I don't mean just those normal lazy or fat tourists that rent the scooters so they don't have to walk...I am seeing TONS of people in wheelchairs...and I saw the most amazing thing today this guy actually went down the escalator in his wheelchair and didn't fall or crash! AMAZING I tell you. So do any of you handicaps out there know if there is a convention in Las Vegas right now for you and what do you do here when you all gather like this...other than show off going down the escalator in your wheel chair?
Welcome back! It was me in wheel chair went down after you push it!
