Hi Denise, sounds like you are getting sorted.I suggest you ask OT about a shower chair that goes over the bio bidet as I had lots of problems getting one that fitted.
Hope adaptions Will really help.
Best wishes

Wheelchair has arrived. Just need to get it out of the box. The guy dropped it on the doorstep and went to his van. Saw me and came running back. Dont pick it up its heavy! Supposed to be a light weight wheelchair! Anyway I said I live upstairs but it's ok I'm going to put it in my car. He said if I have problems hed come back. Didn't leave his number 🤔

denise the wheelchair seems to tick the boxes. I haven't used it yet as really need the stair lift 1st.
It's definitely light weight & I would say well made. The large wheels are easily removable....helping with the weight.
I'll update once I've road tested👍🏻😇😘

[denise]

Yeah Linda I'm with you.

It just all takes so long. I need things now not when we get to enjoy things for a couple of weeks and then need a rethink.

I'm interested to see what you end up doing. Hows the wheelchair?

denise well the hospice OT was happy to be here when the company came...however I couldn't coordinate it to suit everyone. When the company send me the plan I'll discuss with her and get her views. She may think of questions I need to ask or make suggestions...I bow to her expertise although ulimately, like with most things, I'll hear her views and then make my own decisions.
I'm hoping the company say it's possible...that's the 1st step👍🏻😇

[denise]

Does your OT get a say in it Linda or is this your own plan?

[LindaB]

Thanks Ellie😘

[Ellie]

I have a feeling it might be expensive

Should be well worth it Linda.

🤞🤞 it all works out. xx

[LindaB]

Well if their technicians agree it meets safety requirements & I agree a price(I have a feeling it might be expensive)...about 10 days to a fitting date. I also have to discuss with my neighbour (orchid) as the rail will end in our shared walk way. Shouldn't impede anyone but will need that conversation. 👍🏻😘

[Ellie]

Oh that's good news LindaB Did they give you any idea of a time frame? xx

[LindaB]

Stair lift company came today to measure up for the outside stair lift. They seem to think it's posible...they will send me the plan. So fingers crossed.
