| I firmly believe that the i bot which got such great press is nothing compared to a levo or permobil that actually stands the user up, instead of raising the height. Getting into a standing frame or standing chair is a beautiful thing for a non standing paralyzed person, especially when there is a joystick and the ability to move around while standing!
Happy Easter,

I have seen an IBOT. I have read about them. I have not met an insurance company that will buy one. Medicare and medicaid insist that I will walk before they pay for one. I find that as I get older I become lower on the list of folks thats going to get the new cool handy devices that make life more than minimally barable. I'm jealous of y'all with per-mobiles and vans that you can drive. lol Sometimes I feel like I'm starving and sitting watching everyone else eat steak. The IBOT is like looking at porn. It just frustrates me. lol john c-5 complete post 30 In a message dated 4/13/2006 11:45:40 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: My friend's dad a 6 foot lift for him powered by a 25$ electric chain fall from ACE Hdw. Worked pretty well. Another way might be to try the IBOT. --> IBOT The Dream Machine Dave In a message dated 4/13/2006 4:56:27 P.M.

Do they have lifts for stairs that make u-turns? Can you use a big electric chair on one? Greg |
