My Name in Darrin Bosley,
I'm 45 years old, I was hurt my neck back in 2009, I just messed up two disc between C-5 & C-6 and C-6 and C-7, I was just in pain before the surgery which I had in Aug. 2009
I knew something was wrong the min. I woke up. I could still move my legs and feel them. but, I knew something was wrong. Long story short during the operation they said they may have got a little close to my cord. Now I caught between to wolds the walking and the riding. I can still get out of the chair and get in the bed and shower, and even on some days I can walk about 10 feet or so. I know how blessed I am to be able to that. My problem is pain, something to do with my cord tells my brain that I am hurting to the point it feels as if I have broken a bone. That is how bad it hurts. Pain meds. don't work good enough to get rid of the pain unless they just keep me knocked out all the time. That's why I'm in the chair. I am also blessed to have a very loving wife and a adopted three year old son. I said earlier that I was between two worlds. That's because the people that where my friends don't know how to talk to me because I can't get up and walk off from the chair. On the other hand the people I have met so far around here that are in chairs don't expt me because I can still stand up. enough of that.
I found the site because I was researching chairs to see what everyone else was doing about the terrible chairs that the sales men keep pushing at me telling me that they would go anywhere I wanted to go. The insurance company bought me a Invace TDX SP, That want go over a threshold. I like to hunt and fish and unless I wanted to spend $24,000 for a tank chair. that was not going to happen. We had to come up with a chair that would go in the woods, up and down hills ect. The other problem was the none of the chair have any suspension and the causes me a lot of pain every time I hit any type of bump. Well we just finshed the chair and if I can find a place to post a photo os the chair I would like to share it with you just to something else that is possible. keep in mind this chair was never built to go inside.
