Request for Input - Personal HT Stories
 
We are gathering Personal Stories from those individuals who have been able to attain Mobility through the use of a SEGWAY in their jobs. These stories will be included in our research project

Mr. Montgomery posted his story after we talked by phone a couple of weeks ago. SEE: Personal Story About Me on this thread.

We are particularly interested in anyone who has returned to work sooner after being out on Workman's Compensation or disability insurance.

Being off work after surgery, knee or hip replacement or any other mobility limiting incident even a week or two sooner, is an economic "plus" to someone who has been off 12 - 33 weeks or so.

As in Mr. Montgomery's case - he was able to continue to work in his place of employment where he had completed over 30 years but, not enough for full retirement.

He contends that the SEGWAY saved his career.
