I'm so frustrated I can barely stand it. Once again my power chair has developed another major flaw/ issue. The front wheel on the right side of my chair no longer spins and I think it's even worse than that I think the whole arm of the wheel or how it's connected to the rest of the power chair is flawed somehow. I don't know how I achieved this issue but I know I did it, it's of my own doing. I wish it were not so but it is I mean the best case scenario is that they will take the chair back to the shop and do whatever they have to do to get the wheel spinning again or reattach establish the right side of the chair so it's functional. This is going to require me of course taking use of the backup chair and giving up this chair so that the shop can do what it is they do to repair these kind of issues. If the procedure is similar to what has happened before it will be giving up the chair twice once for the chair to go to the shop so they can diagnose what's wrong and two the second surrender of the chair when the part actually does come in and their technicians have to apply their trade to make sure the pieces put on correctly. I'm hoping perhaps that tomorrow but my occupational therapists is here she will see the status of the chair how where's the chair has gotten just since last week when they are all here trying to fit me for a new chair. As it stands now or sits is a better term I guess, I don't dare try to push this chair to its limit all the way across the street to the market for where I'm sitting now. I can get around to a degree here at the apartment complex in the backyard but like I said I don't want to go somewhere the way it is now and get stranded that would just be too difficult to deal with right now. I don't know if I'm ever going to have a chair that really meets my needs. I'm not trying to be Mr drama mama but I think it's true. I'm going to always have a chair that comes short of what I need totally all the time- - maybe I want too much. I guess I shouldn't complain too much the other night when I was trying to reset my mileage indicator back to zero I hit the wrong button and actually saw how much mileage I basically have which is a 2000 some like 2000 miles I've gone in the years that I've had this chair Which is far less than the mileage on my chair is when I was working. The chair I had before this chair I had more than 5,000 miles on which still blows me away. How about once again before to look on the bright side that is at least I'm in something that sometimes quasi works. The chair's not as bad as I say it is even though it feels like it is that it's spent a good portion of its life either in the shop or need to be in the shop for repairs. I don't know if the new chair will be any better so I better focus on myself that I have some control over..
