last time I got up unassisted, was getting up from sitting by my car. fell putting manual chair in back. I back up to the rocker panel, get feet up by my butt and lift n push with hands on rocker panel. decided I couldn't afford a broken tail bone so gave up manual and went to power chair and a van. used prides are going for 375$ now on ebay.

Ouch!!!!!!! Don't ya hate that? How did ya get back in? My therapist gave up on trying to help me accomplish this. I've fallen 10 times or so. Called 911 each time. (Have tricepts and can't feel nipple down) Has anyone been successful getting back in your chair? How did ya do it???

I was bending over to put a basket of clothes on my feet to get them up to my lap which I do every week but today I didn't have any shoes on. My feet slipped off the feet rest & down I went. Somehow through the event it tore off one of my toe nails. Don'tsha just hate falling out of these things? Dianna p.s. Last week my hand was taped from a burn....that oughta do me for a few months. ____________________________________ See what's new at _AOL.com_ (http://www.aol.com/?NCID=AOLCMP00300000001170) and _Make AOL Your Homepage_ (http://www.aol.com/mksplash.adp?NCID=AOLCMP00300000001169) . ____________________________________ _Check Out the new free AIM(R) Mail_ (http://o.aolcdn.com/cdn.webmail.aol.com/mailtour/aim/en-us/index.htm) -- Unlimited storage and industry-leading spam and email virus protection.
