I know I've asked this before, but this time it's for real. Here goes:
For a "Life In Action" magazine story about commode/shower/tub wheelchairs, I'm looking for chair-users' comments about various brands and features. Comments of any length are welcome. A list of questions follows. Please respond to me directly (not to the whole list) before Sunday, March 25. Best, Ben Mattlin contributor LIFE IN ACTION United Spinal Association To verify the authenticity of this inquiry, please contact my editor, Ian Ruder, at [email protected] or 718-803-3782 ext.7224. 1. What type of commode/shower/tub chair do you use? 2. What do you like/dislike about it? 3. When shopping for a commode/shower/tub chair, what features are most important to you? (Being able to self-propel, portability, comfort, rolling ease, durability, size, breaking/locking, easy cleaning, etc.) 4. What would you like to see done differently in the manufacture and servicing of commode/shower chairs, if anything? (If, say, you could design your own.) 5. What warnings or other advice would you give someone new to commode/shower chairs, perhaps someone shopping for one for the first time? 6. What is your FIRST name, and in what CITY do you live? That's all! Any other thoughts you have to add would be most welcome. And please share this with others who might be good sources of relevant wisdom! ______________________________ Ben Mattlin www.BenMattlin.com www.MiracleBoyGrowsUp.com
