GETTING A MANUAL WHEELCHAIR | Life with CP

In this video, Dallas is getting a manual wheelchair. This year, Dallas' power wheelchair broke a few times and we found out that many power wheelchair users also have a manual wheelchair as a backup. Thanks to TKEN we were able to get a manual wheelchair for Dallas that she will be able to use at home and as a backup in case her power wheelchair goes down again.
A special thank you to TKEN which is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization formed in 2005, that provides durable medical equipment at no cost to kids with disabilities.

I rescue old pairs of converse that people don't want anymore. That's if you outgrow them or they get too old and worn out, making them not wearable anymore. Eventually I'll start up my own hobby where I restore old pairs, I have no idea when though. But keep that in mind when you're about to give these up. I only rescue regular highs, lows and shoreline. Not platforms, seventies or extra slim fit! I'd love to have her pairs when she's done with them!

[@Timothy-NH]

Wow, these folk are wicked cool people. I checked out their website, pretty sweet organization. Cool frame, I like the color.

[@discoverwithdallas]

Oh yeah! We love TKEN help so many families and kids with disabilities it’s unbelievable! One of my favorite nonprofits that’s for sure! Thanks for watching and checking them out!

So exciting! Seems like a very professional crew. I'm sorry I didn't get the Frog Legs casters. I think she'll enjoy those.

@@discoverwithdallas What did you do with the neon green chair?

[@discoverwithdallas]

We are going to donate that one because it doesn’t fit her it was too big. I am going to post on our social media soon and maybe find a family that could hopefully use it. This one that is fitted to her makes it much easier for her to propel💕
