It came! AND the power package worked. There is nothing more to say. The joy on her face when she sat in it for the first time says it all.

Thank the lord and the heavens above. The Chair has arrived. It has been pronounced good and comfortable.

During this process I watched Cheryl get into and out of a sitting position. In her PCF class they do this as an exercise. A parkie seems to need two things to help with this. The chair needs to be steady and sturdy. No rockers, swingers or swivelers allowed here. We had a plain wooden rocker which is also less than satisfactory for getting up and out of. This chair is taller and solid. I tilts and reclines but has no other movment.

Swivel chairs are a really bad idea for a parkie.
