I would be interested in a van that had what I needed and were
certifiably in good shape. Who has the details and where can I contact?
My spinal cord problem is at T-10/ It was not a trauman, rather the rsult
of a yet unexplained process within the cord--vascullitis, "stroke," or
vascular malformation. The possibility of tumor has just about faded out
of the picture. I live alone, and manage reasonably well at home. The van,
once motor vehicle administration okays me to drive, will open the door
to real independence. Although I admit I have some trepidation about
being on the road alone, and subject to the thiangs any driver is subject
to, and then some. But I've accepted every challenge in good order so far,
and no reason to thinmk I won't manage the new one. Thanks for asking.
REgards,
Harry

Great attitude -- that goes a long way! My brother, Curt, has no movement
below the biceps --- and he's driving in Orlando traffic (even rush hour). If
you'd like, I can pass on his phone and you can discuss the van with him and
his experiences. The van has made a big difference -- before, he just got
used to always having someone with him. Now he has a new freedom to go out
and shop, get a hair cut, or just check out the area. And if he wants to, he
can check out schools or other opportunities. Being in the US without a car --
just doesn't work. Glad that you responded -- let me know if you want Curt's
number.
