Choosing my power assist// It's finally paid!

Hiya!
I’m Ellie and this channel follows me on my journey through life, navigating chronic illness and disability in a world that wasn’t designed for us. Today I finally orderded my power assists and I actually ended up getting two of them! I also finally paid for my wheelchair so we are heading in the right direction!

    It must have been so frustrating for you but I hope you got everything sorted out in the end

    Thanks for the informative video! The balloons in the background were quite festive. Do you do physical therapy to keep your muscles toned and to put on additional muscle? My doctor is having me do that to stabilize my weak EDS joints, and it's been helping a lot.

    Yes the balloons were for my mums birthday! I don’t do physio anymore as I did it for quite a few years and didn’t really feel much difference. I do Pilates every week instead which I feel helps more.

    @@SmallandStrong66 Pilates is amazing! That helped me a lot with my EDS, too. It also taught me better posture for lifting things, so that now I'm less likely to injure myself out in the real world.

    That's frustrating you couldn't try before you buy especially with how expensive they are!

    Yes indeed!! I wish I had been able to but thankfully it’s definitely worked out with the smart drive! I’m still waiting to see how the paws power assist works for me

    I tested the paws cruiser 16 and was on a slight pavement slope and wheelchair and paws tipped me sideways out of the chair. It's probably massively big fluke, but just be careful. It put me of buying this sort of attachment.
