Being healthy as an Ox for 34 years, then suddenly having the body and mind of a 104 year old (no offense intended towards any 104 year old persons out there! :-D) is EXTRAORDINARILY difficult. As for the Gofundme, I don't think I could do that. Respectfully, it feels like digital panhandling, ya know? I'm making some inquiries to the National MS Society in an attempt to find a job that can help accommodate my condition. Which was hard enough! (mentally/emotionally) Also, the MS Society has a grant program that I may apply for that's intended for situations like this (i.e. special transportation needs.) Thanks you VERY much for the kind words, Ron. Have a great day, and hope to see you on the road! :)
First of all, welcome to the forum. Secondly, no need to apologize for or be embarrassed by your financial or physical problems. Most of us have been there, done that. I admire your desire and fortitude to continue on regardless of your condition.
Now, on to the problem of the wheel chair. I have a friend who uses the crane in his pickup. Though somewhat disabled, he is still able to operate the crane to load/unload his motorized wheelchair himself. I think this is the best option. The next problem is scraping up the $500 to purchase one. May I suggest a GoFundMe?
Best of luck!
