[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 200062, member: 1514"] Witz...your right...if I had to do this alone there is no way I could do it myself. I would be stuck inside without a ramp and a wheelchair van. I couldnt do all the lifting by myself. In reality I can move around my house ok...what I need the chair for is when I am out. Medicare rules say that I have to "need" it in the house to so we have to be able to use it in the house which I can do...it fits through all doorways and hallways and I can wheel myself through if I have to but its not something I HAVE to do at this point. Not saying I wont at some point further down. The chair in the house does make it easier for me to sit in the living room to be honest because its higher and easier to get up from but there are other sorts of lift chairs that would be a better accommodation than using the wheelchair for that. I plan on asking for one of them soon. My couch is quite old and very low and when Im here alone its hard for me to pull myself up. Picture a beached whale...lol. [/QUOTE]
