Monkey Shines was a pretty cool movie. It made me a little afraid of
getting a monkey, especially on the big screen where I saw it.

I am using a Hoyer lift on wheels to get up into my chair and am having trouble
getting back far enough in the chair. Is this problem eliminated with a
ceiling mounted lift system? or is it still difficult to get far back into the
chair with a ceiling lift because of the sling? Thanks, Dan T.
Dan,
I use the Hoyer on wheels. Does your chair have tilt and recline?

I have a Hoyer on wheels and do the same thing. Just have your aide push your
knees toward the back of your chair as you are being lowered. Works like a

That's how I do it, someone pushes on both knees as I sit in the chair.
Works every time. And you don't have to readjust clothing and wedgies out of

Try tilting your chair back so your butt goes farther back before lowering
yourself. It works for me.

Any idea on prices for the PT equipped with EZ LOCK Docking System, Hand
Controls, Accelerator Guard, Accelerator/Brake Guard, Fully Automatic Cassette
Lift, C-Tech Memory Shift™, Steering Controls, and Extension Controls?
Probably more than is in my transportation budget, anyway!
Hold your breath, my friend. $48-53,000 is my guess, at this time but each
individual dealer must begin the process with you. That should include the
adjustments too.

I had multiple stones removed on January 10 and they did it with a laser light
