Re: [TMIC] EASY STAND
Akua - I also have one at home.? I am a T-7 with TM for 3.5 yrs and I have had my bike for about 1.5 years.? It's great because as Cody said it is simple to operate.? If you can't use the handle bar grips, someone can stand in front of you and do the pushing.? Your legs and hips still get a work out, just not your upper body.? Insurance paid for mine also, but the price was $11,000.??

Re: [TMIC] EASY STAND
Thanks so much Cody! this is just the kind of information I need! I was entranced by the one that lets you walK aorund! I would so love to be vertical again. Standing would be just like a ride! I hope I could transfer, unassisted, but evenif I couldn't it seems like a great tool. Here's hoping Medicare will cover it. Akua AkuaYes I am paralized from T-3/4.
