Welcome to my website! After a lot of searching through the internet I have found that there are very few websites that appeal to people purely on the basis of their love and need for wheelchairs regardless of the reason. I figured that I would solve this issue by making my own site.

My story, in short:

I personally suffer from Body Identity Integrity Disorder (BIID). You might realize that this is not a typical reason one needs to use a wheelchair. You can read more about this and my own personal experiences at Transabled.org I see using a wheelchair as a necessary evil in my case.  I can’t live without my wheelchair but at the same time it is constantly reminding me of what is just out of my reach.  I encourage you to read all my comments on both this site and Transabled.org before you judge me. 

This website is intended as a place for ALL wheelchair users regardless of the reason they use a wheelchair.  We ask that if you are going to pretend you understand who you are representing, and represent them well. As the saying goes, “First, do no harm”.  In order to view some of the sections on this website you need to become a registered member.  This is NOT a pay to view site and it never will be. It will not cost you anything to sign up... So I really encourage you to do so.  This site is for members and all content is made up of member contributions. In this way, members feel a sense of ownership and community within this site. That said, your privacy is still protected. I am the only person who has access to the member list as the site administrator.  I welcome any comments, suggestions and discussion (no spam or blank messages please).

If you have come across this site unintentionally (Such as you were looking for websites devoted only to people who have a physical disability such as Multiple Sclerosis), and are not sure what this site is all about, please visit the About Us page. This community is built upon mutual acceptance of people no matter what reasons they have for using a wheelchair, and I intend on keeping it that way.

If you have any pictures, tips, reviews or stories that you want to submit then please contact me.

Grouply Warning

I have borrowed some of this from a post a member made in my Yahoo group as he has explained it rather well.  No doubt you will have all received at least one email from a friend inviting you to look at their grouply list and then find you have to register with Grouply to look.  I have replaced the name of the member who sent the grouply email with <insert name here>.

Wheelchairfiction

I know a lot of members on this website are also members in the Yahoo Group Wheelchairfiction.  This group has been a gem and there is always activity there in the way of stories and ideas.  We have learned that the owner of the group has sadly passed away from cancer and this has left us with the question of what to do with the group.  At the moment we are leaning towards nominating someone to take over leadership of the group but we have a poll going for members to vote what they want done.

If you are a member of this group please vote in the poll and nominate someone you feel should take over the day to day runnings of the group, have your say now!

For those of you who have never visited this group before you can find it here

 
A day at the mall

The hand rails on the stairs rotated as a silluate of a wheelchair as he looked over at the bookstore upstairs. But then this was common for things to first be taken in this way. Robin’s thoughts always seemed to wonder through the wheelchair desiring zones before it drifted back to reality. Being in a wheelchair was something he fantasized about often.
