Luke, Do you digital Stimulate or have someone to do it?? We were taught to do that in rehab training towards end of bowel routine and it gets the rest out most always for most people.

RE: [QUAD-L] Redman wheelchair opinions please
Let the BUYER BEWARE when dealing with Redman Power Chair!! I purchased their chair several years ago (paid in full in advance - Never Again!) because it looked like a great chair from the website and full-page ads in New Mobility. LONG story short, I refused to accept the chair the day it was delivered for many reasons, and was told there would be a restocking fee of 20% - no problem. We recovered a couple thousand dollars, then waited and waited and waited only to receive court documents that the company was filing bankruptcy. Well, they're obviously STILL in business with over $10,000 belonging to my family, which we will never see again. I wound up getting a Quickie 646 SE and LOVE it. It doesn't stand, but oh well. It's exactly what I need. If you want to stand badly enough, look into standing frames! If any of you missed my documentary on Discovery Health called Paralyzed and Pregnant, it will air again on July 31st at 9:00 PM, August 1st at 12:00 AM, and August 4th at 1:00 PM, all EST. My son, Pierce, is now 21 months old, runs around like a mad man getting into everything possible, and loves chasing his Toy Poodle, Duke. I am still suffering from orthostatic hypotension, and continue to baffle the medical community. I have posted some pictures at: www.myspace.com/michellecarston Good luck in your quest to find the right chair for you! ~Michelle Carston C-5/6 from diving into a sandbar in the ocean in 1993 Mommy to Pierce Michael, born 10/25/05 via natural delivery From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 19, 2007 3:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; quad-list@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Redman wheelchair opinions please i live in phoenix and took my 10 year old manual chair to them to fix it under their 'lifetime' warranty. they laughed and asked just how long i thought a 'lifetime' warranty should last anyway. that was just the tip of an ugly iceberg. better to avoid redman. dave In a message dated 7/18/2007 8:30:14 A.M.

Add a little mirilax to your diet. A lot of quads take meds that dry their bowel and large intestine. The mirilax carries the water on through. You sort of have to adjust your own dosage. It doesn't cause cramps. Often a small amount is all it takes to stay on your schedule. You may want to ask our doctor about glycolax.

Some money. Liquid Gold. Green Stuff. Or what ever you can get. Remember that you are doing the work and others will benefit from that work. The rehab center will then bill someone/something for those services down the road. Make sure that you get your piece of the pie or something. Best Wishes W In a message dated 7/20/2007 2:17:16 P.M.

New vans are not cheap and the cost of upgrading them cost more each year. Finding a van that will last a long long time also depends on how well you take care of the van. Finding a happy medium between need, wants, desires and what you can afford is the challenge you now face. Did I also mention Sugar Daddy But that also presents its challenges.

[QUAD-L] Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities,
Anybody heard of this treaty? I happened to find this while looking at U.S. demographics at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disabled. Either I am in the dark or we all need to get the Government here to become more active enforcing these Rights. Especially over utilization of nursing homes to meet long term care needs. On December 13, 2006, the United Nations formally agreed on the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the first human rights treaty of the 21st century, to protect and enhance the rights and opportunities of the world's estimated 650 million disabled people.[1] Countries that sign up to the convention will be required to adopt national laws, and remove old ones, so that persons with disabilities would, for example, have equal rights to education, employment, and cultural life; the right to own and inherit property; not be discriminated against in marriage, children, etc; not be unwilling subjects in medical experiments. Glory to GOD Sincerely, Jim Rice C-56 10 yrs. post I have a dream that one day soon, all people with physical challenges will be treated equally. I will not let things I am not able to do yet, Stop what the LORD I can. !!!

M-France You can't always get what you want, but if you try hard, you get what you need Rear-entry vans, can be dangerous to your health. You go in forwards, come out backwards, blindly. You can't perform a turn around. You are limited to space and carrying others could be more difficult. ADA Parking was never designed around rear-entry vehicles. In some major cities, rear entry and rear discharge may be illegal. It often depends on who did the conversion on the Toyota. Gives you something to think about, eh?

I need a new van! can anyone tell me the best one to get, that will last me a long long time. thanks I don't think there's a 'best' in any vehicle you purchase. Lemons come in all sizes! I have a 94 full size Ford with a 302 engine. It has 90,000-some miles on it. It runs fine but I 've had maintenance done on the lift many times. The more you add to a vehicle, the more that can go wrong. I'm not sure there's an answer to that question when it comes to needing a van with accessible equipment.
