[quote=Anonymous]We've gone through this with my mom, too. I wish I had an answer - all I have is empathy. It's very hard, and very frustrating. My mom won't even use a walker. She chooses to be stuck in the house, unable to do very much, instead of using the mobility devices that would help her do more - and be with us more. We finally got her to use a chair when we went on vacation together. She seemed to really like it - she could boss us all around even more! She won't really use it outside of that, though. I wonder if some kind of fun incentive would help? Take your dad somewhere he really enjoys, where a wheelchair would help him enjoy it more?[/quote]
