Wheelchairs and Walkers
Wheelchairs cost a lot of money these days. My neighbor informed me that in Avenida and along Bambang streets, plated wheelchairs cost only around P2,500 but the painted ones cost only about P1,200. That was 3 years ago. Yesterday was different. Plaited wheelchairs range from P3,200 to P5,600 per unit. The painted ones cost P2,800 to P3,000.
Because of the high cost, I opted to buy a walker. The walker has four front wheels and an adjustable seater. We will use this to practice my husband walking. Anyway, the doctor did not advise him to use a wheelchair so he would not become dependent on it for his movement. But because his left hand and arm are still very weak, we have to escort him on his left side in order to make use of the walker. Did I not waste my money?
