Today I was measured for my own wheelchair. I have my fancy neon lime green wheelchair but it's not actually mine. It's a demo wheelchair I am renting. We took about 50 measurements and answered about 50 questions to see exactly what I need. Little things like the weight of the chair, the cushion, the back, the wheels, there are really unlimited things that are changed to make a chair just for me and my abilities. Now just to get my insurance to approve it without a fight.
I think a lot of people were hoping I would get home and start healing quickly and then I wouldn't need my own wheelchair. That unfortunately isn't the case. I am happy to get my own and I know I will get good use out of it.

Does this mean you can decorate it with sweet stickers??! ha ha love you steph and if you need anything let me know...like season 7 of One Tree Hill?! you can totally borrow it if you want :)
Scott wants to know if he can try to do a wheelie 360 with your new chair. Does he have your permission?
Hope it gets approved. Insurance is horrible to deal with!!!!
That will be SO nice to have a chair custom fit just for you! Good luck with the insurance.
