"Thanks to the MS Society, I received a power chair. Because it has a lift that raises me up to counter height, I am now able to cook, do laundry, and dye textile projects at the sink. I am able to be mobile and be sitting down comfortably. I can go outside on the deck for fresh air and a change of scenery. It has restored my zest for life."

| "I have always been a very independent person and before I got my power chair I had to depend on others to shop for me. I was stuck at home and had difficulty getting around my own house. Since I have recieved this chair my life is so much better. Now I have a new freedom and a lot more fun. – Ina in Nanaimo, BC |

"Thank you for purchasing a walker for me. I use it all the time and it has prevented many falls and injuries for me. It goes everywhere with me and without it I couldn’t even get around in my own house. With this walker, I can go places with my children and friends I couldn’t go before." – Karin in Kelowna, BC |

| “Because of my scooter I am no longer confined to my home and I do not constantly need to depend on other people to go places. With the scooter I can go on outings, participate in social gatherings and be present at enriching events in the community. Using this amazing scooter I feel comfortable and at ease. It lets me be as mobile and independent as possible.” –Fernande in Masset, BC |

"I want to thank the MS Society for contributing to the purchase of Marlene's new motorized chair. It is important to Marlene to get out in the community and be active, and having a fully functional chair allows her to do that. It also gives her confidence, security and ensures she has the mobility support she requires while she is away from her home. The entire family benefits from Marlene's motorized chair because Marlene is able to join in and meet us at a mall or restaurant to celebrate special events." –On behalf of Marlene: Dena, Marlene's POA; Dan & Keely, Marlene's son & daughter-in-law, in Nanaimo, BC |

| “I now have two wonderful slings due to your generosity! I really want to emphasize how much I appreciate the help in obtaining the proper slings. My shoulders are giving out, and these slings alleviate the pressure on my bones! So I just thought I would drop a note telling you how much this helps my body!.” –Marilyn in Sidney, BC |

"The assistance with the typing aids has significantly increased the overall quality of life for me. Now I can type long enough to connect with my family who live
out of town and access online communities and stay more
connected. The typing aids have opened up the possibility for me to be able to participate in long and short term volunteer work" –Vincent in Vancouver, BC |

“I am so grateful for the power wheelchair provided to me through the MS Society of Canada's Equipment Provision Program. The chair is my sole transport system and it has greatly increased my independence. Without it I couldn't
get to my part-time job and it's very important to me to be out and actively participating in the community. It has improved my overall well-being and has made me a stronger person.” –Alice in Vancouver, BC |
