Comment on Who Really Decides Wheelchair Cushion Comfort? by Kimmy Win

I would love for them to be required to do that–to sit on it for hours–the insurance companies. If they are going to play doctor, then they can be on the other side too. It’s only fair. I mean, honestly, they didn’t even have to go to medical school, and yet they’re given the power to make decisions that would be better made by the human sitting in the actual chair. Insurance companies involve random ass people hired by billionaire corporations who could care less about anyone’s well-being unless they themselves are affected. Why should THEY even be allowed to do that? Why did our doctors go to medical school if they can’t even make decisions in our best interest without going through these random peeps first?

I completely agree with this piece. Too often, decisions about wheelchair comfort are made by people who don’t actually have to sit in these chairs for hours every single day.

Comfort isn’t a luxury for us. It’s about preventing pain, pressure sores, and long-term damage. It’s about being able to function.

I personally invested in an Ease Seating System, which cost me $699 out of pocket. It made a real difference in my daily life. That alone says a lot about the gap between what’s typically provided and what actually works for the person using it.

At the end of the day, the person sitting in the chair should have the biggest say. We’re the ones living with the consequences.

I should of had you on a few trips with my experience I had with bad hotel rooms. We just acted like a few frat brothers and rolled with it. As I’ve gotten older I dont put-up with it anymore.

Have you ever pushed a wheelchair on a rug down a hotel hall what seemed like a mile? I went to the front desk and demanded to be moved to the front of the hall. They moved me and my friends. My small victory. They all add up. Les Snyder
