Dear folks: My husband has been using the wheelchair more these days and finds it very uncomfortable after sitting in it most of the day. We have tried using a board to eliminate the "squeeze," padding the board with towels, mattress padding, cushions, etc., but nothing is satisfactory. Does anyone out there have a better way to make wheelchairs more comfortable? I should mention also that we bought this used wheelchair for $40 without the foot supports -- of course, thinking that we could "pick one up somewhere." I wonder if that could be one of the problems. Also, Dave tends to slouch terribly when he sits -- but he's no slouch. We could use of your suggestions here, too. Baltimore MD is famous for crabs, but I didn't want my husband to be one of the crabs! Help, someone!! Esther Abe CG for Dave 74/5
