scooter

Not sure if this is strictly the best area, but I just wanted to share a bit on the cruise with disabilities. So far only the right side of my body is affected. I don't use my right hand much (ever, if I'm honest). I wear an AFO. I can walk with a stick but not too far. Mainly due to...

It's been awhile since I have posted, but I read the forums everyday. My PALS continues to progress, however, I am so in awe of him in that he lives his days with purpose and fills his life with joy. This weekend he took our eldest daughter, 24, on a weekend trip to Texas. He needs help...

Great Scott! Today is Marty McFly day! You know, back to the future! My kids want hover boards. I would like a scooter type one. I know they are working on it but seriously! They've had 30 years! I really want one of those ovens that turn a piece of toast with a green thing on top into a...

There's an old (closed) thread that mentions the EZ Lift electric wheelchair and another, the Zipper, but I'm wondering if anyone has used a portable power wheelchair and what their experience has been. The EZ Lift with the joy stick now has a deluxe model with a 5-position adjustable back and...

I am a 72 year old woman. In Feb. 2015, I was admitted to the hospital for a huge blood clot in my left leg. After the doctor cleaned out my veins, I noticed numbness in BOTH feet. When this did not improve and I ended up with a drop foot in my left foot, a neurosurgeon took one look at my MRI...

Does anybody have any experience with the zinger portable power wheelchair? Hubby can still walk, but tires quickly and his FVC is only 60%. He used a scooter on our last trip and thinks it may be helpful when we go out or to go around our neighborhood at home. The zinger looks cool, but he...

We made it to Europe and have had a fabulous time. Hubby has been using a rented scooter and it has been wonderful. He was resistant at first, but he has been able to do so much with it, that is is a non-issue now. We have done Berlin, Prague and now Vienna with our daughters and it has been...

My hubby is bulbar onset and is currently in a slide. He still drives, but his shoulder, hand and neck weakness are becoming more debilitating. His breathing is impacted and he has a lot fatigue. We have planned a trip to Germany and Austria with our two adult daughters and to see a close...
