Ainsley's Mom!

Your message limit is maxed out!

I googled "convaid rodeo image" and your blog popped up, how perfect! Charlie's chair took a dump on us yesterday (you can read my blog for the full dramatic story) and I'm looking at different chairs now, hoping we get approved for a new one early, due to the circumstances.

I'm just wondering how you like it? Is it easy to fold? Any serious "cons" to it? I like the slimness of it. The kimba is a beast of a seat and I never loved it. It looks like Charlie isn't going to need vent support during the day under normal circumstances and I just don't see needing a huge, heavy chair. That and I don't intend to buy a van any time soon and don't have room for one.

sorry about that. I don't have time for an in depth reply. We are in between appointments. but I love our rodeo! They made it available with recline and a flip up foot rest. Two things we really wanted but we bought ours a little too soon.

One of the things I love about you, Susan, is that you are a PM hoarder. :p :p

LOL! Yes I know. I like to be able to go back and read them. My memory is terrible so I have to have things "written down" and I have PM's from moms of kids with cerebellum malformations (there are a number of us with different types), advice from moms whose kids have/had airway swelling, and some PM's from Karen that I can't bear to delete. She always had interesting and thoughtful things to say. Boy I miss her. And I've deleted many and downloaded them over the years, but I like to have easy access to the ones I've kept. My strategy is to find the least important one and delete it or save it so I can receive messages still, which obviously isn't a great system and my box fills up. Some day perhaps I'll take the information out of the PM's and organize it. In my spare time. ;)

I have kept several PMs from Karin too. It was about this time a year ago that I talked to her on the phone for the last time. We were just heading out to Jakarta to look for a house and I knew she would have the baby while we were gone so we chatted a bit about what big changes were coming in our lives. I remember just barely seeing that B had been born when we had to head out for our flights. I posted a quick congrats on Facebook and the next time I was able to log in about 36 hours later after our flights she was gone. I miss her too.
