We are planning on taking my 80 year old mom w/us this year and we know from past experience that she needed a wheelchair so we are expecting that, but she is not aware of the fact that this time she is going to use one of the motorized ones (anyone who has pushed a wheelchair understands why we are insisting on this) but I know she will be very resistant, my husband plans on walking beside her if necessary and steering/assisting)- has anyone every either used one or had a loved one who was also resistant and ended up using one- How did it work out? are they easy to control, any problems? Mom is in great health other than the fact she cannot walk long distances w/out assistance, so this will be our only issue. Please tell me how it worked for you.
