HI, I GOT MINE FROM A CANADIEN COMPANY CALLED WAVERLY GLEN----I LOVE MY 2 PIECE 
STRAP SET-----I HATE FULL BODY SLINGS. THEY USUALLY HAVE A DISTRIBUTOR IN YOUR 
AREA ORDER FOR YOU......THOUGH YOU MAY BE ABLE TO ORDER IT STRAIGHT FROM THE 
COMPANY. THEY WERE A BIT WORRIED ABOUT LAWSUITS IF NO BODY OR ARM CONTROLL AT 
ALL------BUT I TOLD MY DISTRIBUTOR TO JUST ORDER IT FOR ME, THAT I'D HOLD 
NO-ONE RESPONSIBLE AND WOULD EVEN SIGN SAYING SO----------WE'LL HE JUST GOT ME 
ONE BECAUSE I DON'T NEED FULL SLING , I'M A C-6   GOOD LUCK, YOU CAN FIND 
WAVERLY GLEN ONLINE------IF THEY WON'T SEND DIRECT JUST ASK FOR YOUR NEAREST 
LOCAL SUPPLIER THAT USES THEM..............  DAN H. C-6

I am hoping somebody on this list will be able to help me. I am a C 3/4 
quadriplegic and since I left the rehab facility 15 years ago I have been using 
two straps about 6 inches wide {instead of a sling} whenever I hoyer in and out 
of my wheelchair. One of them goes behind my shoulders and the other goes under 
my knees. I want to replace those straps and cannot find them available 
anywhere. All I can find are slings now and we are used to the straps and would 
really like to stay with them. Does anybody on here have an idea where I could 
purchase them or have them made?  Thank you in advance for any ideas you I hope 
everybody has a good weekend.Raymond Kelly
