Hi I am new here also. I hope you get that silly chair trained soon. I have a major respect for teachers. Way too much work with not enough pay.

-- Waving howdy to the group

Hello all,

I am newbie to the group. I deal with PPS

Post Polio Syndrome which causes weakness

and pain. The weakness makes you a social

recluse and the pain makes you want to pull

your hair out then we survive it all for

another day.

I'll be 50 in January, a retired

(way too early)

6 th grade school teacher and diabetic with

a new wheelchair that is difficult too train.

Yes, I said train...lol. I think it's training

me. [sigh] I am sure one day in the next few

weeks, I'll take to that wheelchair very well,

but don't you just hate the IN-BETWEENS?

I'm glad to be here.

SOmewhere in south texas,

Cat
