discovered this exciting wheelchair at the Boston Abilities Expo two

years ago. He bought one because it allows him to propel himself using his leg

muscles. He loves it! He used it in last year's TeamWalk walkathon.

I put up a photo of him when he tried it out at the Abilities Expo. Our MA

group went there as a Connection outing. Check it out now because I won't keep

this as a webpage -

http://sp-foundation.org/pedalwheelchair.htm

There are Abilities Expos held throught the year in several locations across

the country. They are great to learn about products and services for people

with all types of disabilities. There are also lots of educational workshops.

I highly recommend going to on. There's one in August in Chicago and in

September in Detroit and November in northern California. Check out the

Abilities

Expo website here: http://abilitiesexpo.com/ .
