How should I choose mobility equipment if I have Parkinson's disease?

Always try out any mobility equipment before you buy it. That includes canes, walkers, manual and electric wheelchairs, transport chairs (all four wheels are the same size), and three-wheeled scooter wheelchairs. Check out the size, weight, and ease of operation.

If someone will be pushing your wheelchair, explain to that person about “courtesies of the road,” including speed, cornering, handling leg rests, backing into elevators, going up and down curbs, and the like. If you are considering purchasing a three- or four-wheeled scooter or wheelchair, find one that is easy to transport. Some chairs are lightweight and disassemble easily; others may require a lift that picks up the chair and puts it into the vehicle with minimal physical effort.

Some automobile manufacturers, like Ford and Toyota, offer discounts and/or rebates for the purchase of adaptive equipment for people with disabilities. Ask your dealer about options and programs available.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
