All About Wheelchairs What You Should Know BEFORE You Buy
At some point in your life chances are, you will have a need to know something about wheelchairs. It may be no more than being wheeled to your vehicle after a hospital stay. Hopefully, that’s the extent.
The fact is, however, many of us find ourselves in the position of caring for a loved one who is injured or disabled. What we previously gave little thought suddenly becomes overwhelming.
Will you be prepared?
You spend thousands of dollars each year to insure your car, home, health and even your life. With the exception of life insurance, the odds are that you may never use any of them. Does that mean that you cancel them? Of course not.
