Holey, moley! While it's wonderful that the insurance company will cover the cost of a wheelchair for the male person in my household, it's disappointing that they won't cover the lift for our car. So if you use a wheelchair and need to take it somewhere, I think maybe you need to use public transportation? Or, if we get it together to go on a trip, how do I get him there without spending the vacation money to buy the lift?
Of course, lifts aren't essential, but they sure do promote independence!
Nuts!
On my personal bright side, I have my hand surgery scheduled for this Friday! Yay! With the kind of luck one of my teachers had, I might be able to hold things again without dropping them. I used to be able to hold a wet glass when I washed it without worrying about breaking it. Not now. Along with trigger finger came a weak grip in my dominant hand. Looking forward to Saturday!
This post sounds like I am really old! I don't feel old. I still have several years to what I hope will be an active, fun retirement.
Gotta get everything fixed while I still have good insurance!
And of course, the lofty cruise, travel plans I started to make over the weekend are going out the window until we can figure out how to pay for the lift.
