KARMA- AURORA 3 + |
WHEELCHAIR NUMBER 7
So we had long decided that when we would be visiting Kolkata for my Godson's First Holy Communion on the 17th of November , we would allot one day to search for Vin's new wheelchair. So on the morning of 16th, we left for the place in Kolkata renowned for All types of Mobility stuff- Chittaranjan Avenue. I was looking out for Model 938 by Vissco as Vin had tried it out in a hospital and suited him and us well. Then a store showed us this- Karma(number one brand in India as of now). It had swing-away handrests, removable leg rests, removable big wheels, foldable, etc. But the Best Part was - Vin's legs fitted on to the rests PERFECTLY.
His papa was happy it could be made so small as to fit inside the car's boot comfortably. But in the first store, the left leg rest was not swinging back into position with a click as the right one. So they made us wait for over an hour saying they would get another piece for us. Only there was no other piece with them. So Vin's dad walked down the lane and found the same model in another shop and a few hundred cheaper. It took us 5 minutes to check that one out and load it into our car :). Vin looks very comfy in it, and I am happy for the legs :)
