    Using both a wheelchair and walker can be very demanding on both devices. My walker gets more scuffed up from bringing it in and out of the car and banging it everywhere. My wheelchair needs constant TLC and to be looked over.

    When it comes to making adjustments or certain modifications to your devices, what are some things you have done?

    I’ve had to order numerous parts for my wheelchair like a foot plate, new brakes and new tires. For my walker, my brakes go out often and get stretched loose so I need to order chords. Is there any organization you can suggest to others when getting or ordering medical equipment?
