I got my van about a month ago that was used by another para but
his chair was much smaller than mine. I am now trying to get the work
done. It's killing me I have this van that I can't drive. The
trigger on the lift to let the flap come down doesn't work, I can't pull my
chair up to the wheel cause the hole is too small, and the seat doesn't turn
around. ON top of it all, pushing a year later and the DMV still hasn't
gotten to me to decide on whether or not they'll let me have my license. I
have to get the work done to the van 3 hrs away because vocational rehab wont do
it because the van is too old with too many miles on it. There aren't any
mechanics or shops where I live that work with the agency that I use for the
waiver program in my area. It feels like there isn't an end in
sight. I know there is. I just pray after paying out so much money
to put it on the road this is will all pay off. I don't know how I am
surviving financially. I can't even ride in the damn thing because the tie
downs in the back are in another little hole in the back where my chair doesn't
fit. Say a prayer for me everyone because since my friends car got
totaled, I am barely going anywhere and I am starting to get super depressed
from not getting out and doing anything.
