    Story

    I was born with a disability called Arthrogrphosis, when I was born I had no feet, but thanks to the wonderful surgeons and loads of operations they made me some , as I have got older my legs are failing, I now can't walk any distance at all. I have always had my independence. and want to keep it.i looked after both my Mum and Dad until they both died my Mum had Multiple Sclerosis, which progressed very quickly. my Dad lived to a good age of nearly 97 and with the help of my partner we look after him until he died 6 years ago. I had a bad fall a few years ago and badly injured my spine, which has now made walking very hard. I cant wheel myself in a normal wheelchair due to one of my hands being deformed at birth, I have never asked for any help with anything in my life. I really don't expect to reach my target but every little bit would help me. I have found the perfect chair that would give me back my independence and make my life a lot easier , and I wouldn't have to rely on others. thank you so much for spending your time to read this
