On Being a Care Giver
Recently, I was blessed to become a care giver for an elderly gentleman. Walter was 92 when we met, and we had six months together before he passed away. The decision to take the job was easy - I needed an income, and it seemed like easy work. I quickly realized I had a lot to learn, both about the job of care giving and myself.

Electric Wheelchairs and Medicare - What You and Your Family Need to Know
It's been an interesting few years for those that follow the relationship between the electric wheelchair industry and Medicare.

That's when companies like The Scooter Store and Hoveround began to market the wheelchairs nationally in the same manor that diabetic supply companies promoted diabetic medical supplies that were Medicare covered. When these companies began their national advertising campaigns for electric wheelchairs, the demand for the equipment nearly tripled in under three years (from 1999 to 2002). The Medicare expenditures for these wheelchairs increased by a whopping $556 million over this time period.
