So, I’m getting ready to leave my comfort zone and use public transportation. My mind starts whirring 100 mph, suppose my power wheelchair breaks down at the store , restaurant, doing errands, how do I get home? How do I get my power wheelchair home?

I took a few minutes today to figure out back up plans for stuff with my power wheelchair.

I called National Mobility & Seating in Troy, where my chair was purchased. The wonderful brilliant customer service dept said put the chair in neutral and push it home or to the office. The chair is 400 lbs plus me so about 5-600 pounds, who will push me 5 miles home or 45 miles to Troy MI? 2nd suggestion given – Medicaid has transportation to bring me home. Yes, if the chair is working and if I have Medicaid, which I do not. 3rd suggestion push your power wheelchair into your vehicle to transport it. I don’t have an accessible vehicle, hence the public transportation in the beginning of this post. 4th suggestion call us to hookup with a remote technician and fix your wheelchair through the internet. This was never told to me in the 1st place and my chair is connected to the internet? No, it’s not, I checked. Well ma’am, says Sarah in customer service you are asking for hypothetical solutions – you just need to call 911 then. 🤬😡🤯😤😠
