I'm a c5/6 complete as of 11/05/03......I use a slideboard and can totally transfer.....except I need help with my legs when I transfer from the chair to the bed.

Can any c5/6's get their legs into bed independently? If so, how do you do it?

Thanks!!
Paul

I transfer into a power chair. With the armrest all the way back and behind the cushion, there is no obstruction to sliding directly onto the cushion. What do you mean about legs what legs? Here is the url for my chair notice the footrests are not in the way at all

Those of you who transfer, I'm assuming you are in manual chairs? What kind do you use? I am obviously not going to be able to do it into a electric wheelchair. The legs are like 8 lbs each!
Thanks
