Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Robbie has gone above the call for help for me for the upcoming Sarc Confernece. Robbie was checking on prices to rent a scooter or power chair for Tom and you would not believe the prices she found. One DME(Distributor of Medical Equipment) wanted 260.00 this was delivery, pick up and rental for just two days, usually rental is the same price for the week. Another DME wanted 250.00 for the same thing, but only one would wave the delivery and pick-up fee and just cost us 100.00. This is really a shame that only one was willing to wave the delivery and pick up fee, but the price for two days was still rediculous. Tom says he can walk it and since there is a shuttle that will pick up and take us back to the motel this is even better. I want to again thank Robbie for all her help.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Sharon,That is fabulous news! Thank goodness you will be able to go -and- get around. It's nice, when every once in while, you find someone who is willing to push through the crap and get results. Hope you guys have a wonderful time fellowshipping with everyone. I wish I could go. Well, God willing, next year.Naa Koshie"Sharon L. Schuckman" wrote: Robbie has gone above the call for help for me for the upcoming Sarc Confernece.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Robbie is a peach! Those of you who have been able to attend one of the annual Sarc conferences/retreats in Indianapolis have met her. Sharon, I don't know what's in Indy, but there is an auto dealership out near me that also has a mobility center. I have rented a scooter from them on a day to day basis; I think it was $30 for the first day & $25 a day after that. I'll call them & see if they know of a similar place in Indianapolis.
