    PWC problems

    Yesterday was a horrible day. I went to my monthly ALS meeting which went well. When we got home, I went right on the ramp on the van by accident and my PWC got stuck between the van and the ramp. I would have gone flying off it if I did not have my seatbelt on. My husband got my manual...

    New use for transfer board

    I am planning ahead here, but I was just thinking ...... My niece has a wheelchair van with a lift that she has offered to us when needed, but it is an older van and would not be reliable to travel longer distances (plus, if it breaks down, I really don't want to pay for expensive repairs).
