Bruce, I believe I shall take up a letter writing campaign. Absolutely NONE of those would work for me if I wanted to walk. And there are places I can't take my mobility chair (such as the three day cruise my family is doing in April. The Doors to the cabin are not big enough even in the handicapped cabins.) Yes I can take E tanks that last .93 hours at 8lpm and yes I turn them down when I'm sitting but they still last about 2.5 hours period. I'm gonna get me a double cart (or point out to the o2 people they are only 40 bucks on the internet) but that still only gives me 5 hours and I can't fly with tanks. My problem is I refuse to give up and stay home LOL.This week my truck is finally in the shop getting fixed after the accident I had in October. Well tonight on the way home I got hit in my rental car ON THE SAME DAMN STREET only about 3 blocks further west. I do not think I will be

driving on that street anymore. Again no injuries, just car damage but honestly I had mine for the year. Give me a break.Dyane, 54, Phoenix, IIP 02 now NSIP 09, Breast Cancer, Psoriasis, Lipodermatosclerosi s, Diabetes, and now a RA like autoimmune component, yadda yadda yadda."Life is not a journey to the grave with intentions of arriving is a pretty, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, chocolate in one hand, Margaritas in the other, loudly proclaiming "Holy **** What a ride!"."
