I personally hope that in everyone's life, they have the opportunity to try out a standing wheelchair. Some of the benefits can be overwhelming. However, I usually advise that a Standing Evaluation, with an Occupational Therapist to determine if and how long one can stand, vertical. Some with low blood pressure may pass out with a quick stand. Some can not operate a manual stander because of strength issues. A motorized stander might work better then a manual unit. By all means, if you meet the perimeters... Go For It. Best Wishes In a message dated 1/23/2013 9:41:49 P.M. Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
