Re: [QUAD-L] New Chair ?

You know how when someone is in a car accident they often claim a neck injury, which is nondescript and difficult to pinpoint.  You just have trouble sitting up all day in those chairs.  You don't understand why, but it hurts and you have to go back to bed.  Only the Invacare seems to allow for

Re: Fwd: [QUAD-L] Molded backs

I have a molded back seating system. I'm paralyzed from the shoulders down so it doesn't affect any intended movement and it's nice to not have separate lateral supports that you have to swing in and out. From: Bryce Willis To: "quad-list@eskimo.com"

Re: [QUAD-L] New Chair

I think that's BS.  Go to the Invacare site.  Last time I went there they were fine.  It may take more to get what you want but get what you want.  I didn't.  I listened to a specific individual who steered me away from Invacare, even though my last two chairs were Invacare and I loved them.

Re: [QUAD-L] Why do Quads get light headed after eating? Do you?

If your breathing and/or cardiovascular system has been affected, diminished due to your disability, then it happened because you aren't breathing while eating.  Try eating more slowly or take a couple bites and then take a break or eat while you are tipped back.  From: Raymond Kelly
