[tri-med] Re: KidKarts

**  Just looking for some feedback now. **


Debbie...

Hannah has a Kid Kart and we love it. The only draw back we have run =
into is
that we had to figure out how to deal with her equiptment with it. (We =
had
just gotten a twin stroller to help haul her and her stuff.) But we have =
it
down now and it is great for her to be able to sit upright more and be
supported. We also have the booster base and that is great in the house. =
It
is much more manuverable (caster-like wheels) and adjustable =
height-wise,
and you still have the back and forth adjustability of the chair portion =
(as
it fits in the base.) We have even used it to bring her up to the table =
when
we eat so when she gets to where she can be fed orally again we can use =
it
as a highchair. When we are out the handle of the Kid Kart will fold =
over
and tuck out of the way and you can wheel it up to a table. It has made =
a
big difference for her!!!

Yes, they are expensive. We got the Kid Kart, O2 tank attachment and IV
pole, booster base, and rain cover and it was about $4,500. We couldn't =
have
done it without the insurance.=20
