Please help my mom

One more place to try is Freecycle.

Carey gave us her mom's motorized chairs and after Mom was gone, we freecycled them and two nice people who needed them picked them up!

Ok?

I followed this post from it's inception.
I asked her generic information about her mothers health insurance situation, and became more an more confused with the conflicting evasive answers. She attacked me when I asked her to "come clean" which means please be clear in your answers or in her case please try to tell the truth.

Check out what I said about the confusing/evasive answers, before you fault me for going to the attack mode. Like I said, I would have bought "her" a scooter for her mother, I actually know where there are 4 parked in Puna right now and could have arranged for her to get one on loan, I gave her that information earlier in her original post but "she" started a new post. All she had to do was tell what program her mother is on and NONE of this would have been said. I needed that information about Medicare/Medicade to get her mother a new scooter, I would have sent her the appropriate forms and information. Nothing personal would have been requested or required for that help.

The offer and location of help for you was removed from the forum by me. I called the appropriate people and told them not to provide you any help.[}]







I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

Wuzzerdad, I have had people try to play Punaweb cop before. They ended up banned. Leave it alone.

Assume the best and ask questions.

Did anyone try a Google search with, say, "medicare + scooter"? I get this:

Medicare is the country’s health insurance program for people age 65 or older as well as those who qualify for disability. Finding funding for wheelchairs can be tough. This section will help you learn more about what Medicare is and how it can help cover the cost of wheelchairs.

I have a couple of thoughts on this. 1) There have been good suggestions and I also would think Medicare or Medicaid would help. 2) Should medicare/Medicaid not apply, were it my mother, I would buy it for her myself, even if I had to take out a loan or sell some of my shlt.

You people are so rude with some of these comments. Get a life!

It is very difficult to work, when you are taking care of your disabled mother, what Shoresresident asked was a reasonable request. She posting this topic twice knowing how she was going to be attacked, it is obvious how much she cares for her mother. How painful it is to not be able to get equipment to make her life easier. Some of the comments were tacky and uncalled for.
