A new ride is on its way

A few weeks ago, a short time after Sophie was released from hospital, we had a follow up seating appointment to make the final decisions about the transport chair we are ordering for Sophie.  We had decided on the Convaid Rodeo after the last appointment and now we had to figure out a size and exactly what attachments she needed.  Sophie was a worn out girl but she was so patient and let us configure everything around her.



Sophie needs a lot of support for her trunk so we needed the firm cushion insert that will keep her pelvis and back supported properly.  We didn't have a Rodeo to try out but an older model Cruiser worked fine in its place to figure out sizes.  Sophie's Oma was able to help me make some decisions at the appointment and Sophie loved showing her everything for the first time.


I am so impatient for her new chair to arrive but I am hopeful it won't be long!  Her old Bingo has worked for the last 5-6 years but it is definitely time for something new that fits this long lean string bean of mine!
