Hi Zach, I still do a lot of advocay work in fact I do that and keep data
bases on products and all kinds of general info for the disabled to keep me
busy. I find that having a "job" sure is better than sitting at home doing
nothing but vegitating infront of a tv.
Try the Sierra tri cart sometime, I think you will really enjoy it. It
has and adjustable seat that can be set either manually to the height you
want or one with a hydrolicaly controlled lift. SSA will pay for one device
that is hydrolacly controlled, that is if you have a doctors note saying it
is neccessary they will pay for either a lift chair that you see advertised
all around or you can have a lift on a tricart.
Keep up with the advocacy work your doing, we need all the workers we can
get, but don't forget to supplement it with education. I think that
sometimes that works better. If they can condition children in schools that
we are different, we can do the same in schools and teach them just how we
are like them.
