Power Wheelchair (standard seat)

Descripción del producto

The AdvoCare concept grew out of the trying experiences Mr. Ron Pocklington and his family encountered along with the problems and challenges that they faced in over *0 years of providing homecare and trying to give a respectable quality of life to his son, Andrew. At age 4, young Andrew Pocklington was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The grief and shock of this terrible news eventually led the Pocklington family to resolve that they would do everything possible to give their son a full and rewarding life for whatever time he had.

The many difficulties they encountered were daunting. Problems ranged from basic physical things like lack of wheelchair access in many buildings to a sometimes seemingly intransigent and over-extended healthcare system that simply not geared to the needs of the disabled. The family devised their own way to not only cope, but to overcome these problems. Mr. Pocklington spoke out on behalf of his son and others in similar situations and began making more and more people in positions of responsibility aware that some things had to change.
