Guest guest Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 Dear , I'm so sorry about your van getting broken into and your stuff stolen......try looking in thrift stores....I have seen wheelchairs at my thrift store.......In fact just call every few days.....they will tell you if they have one and hold it for you. Good luck!! C. I am so .... I am so pissed this morning.. does life ever get easy?I have been dealing with insurance companies and the police for the past couple of days..I put my van in the shop last week to get some needed work done ..while it was there .. it was broken into (along with a few other cars)..my standard wheelchair was stolen plus a duffle bag containing my dog's mobility assistance harness was taken.I only use the harness on him when he is pulling the wheelchair .. so I leave it in the van ..my van was there about 3 hours when they called me and told me about the break ins ..and get this .. their insurance doesn't cover it .. "We are not responsible for any items left in the vehicles."and neither does my insurance company ..aaaggghhhh... I have no proof the wheelchair was in the van ..other than the obvious lack of a wheelchair now at my house..but the insurance company doesn't see that as proof..sighs .. and get this .. since my medical insurance already paid for one wheelchair .. they wont pay for another ..I am just so angry about this ..angry with myself for leaving it in there ..and angry with the chit of a person who stole it..sighs ..with my finances .. there is no way I can afford a new wheelchair right now .. and the dog's harness was special made (most of them are) .. and it cost over $300 .. so .. that is going to be put on hold too.You know what the insurance guy said?? .. without a wheelchair .. you don't need the harness now do you?ok .. thanks for listening ..I just needed to let it out before I exploded!guess I will look in the paper and see if someone has a used wheelchair I can buy ..would be cheaper than a new one .. would just have to clean it ..sighs ..hugs.."The LUPIES Store" Come check out our store...http://www.cafepress.com/thelupies"The LUPIES Web Page"http://www.itzarion.com/lupusgroup.html"The LUPIES online photo albums!"

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2004 Report Share Posted March 4, 2004 I am so sorry to hear about the theft of your wheelchair and dog harness. The person/s that did this are calous low life as far as I am concerned. I hope that someone made a police report. The insurance companies involved should be ashamed of themselves for their attitude towards this whole situation. I would write a letter to the editor of the Orlando Sentinal thanking the crook for your loss and your loss of freedom so to speak. Maybe you will get some action then.
