The conditions of using the seg were the same as if I were using another type of mobility device: - It had to be stowed in our cabin. - They could not guarantee it being taken ashore, since tenders could be used in some ports. - It could not be left in the hallways. - They had no place to store it, other than our cabin. Since it had to be kept in the cabin, it had to fit through the narrow cabin door. That meant sliding/dragging my i167 in sideways. As it turns out, the seg stayed in the cabin for the entire cruise. I was able to do without it on-board and it did not make sense to take it for any of the shore excursions, since they all had transportation right off the dock. Had I had time to cruise around any of the port cities, I would have used it for sure. We spend nearly two weeks in Alaska after the cruise, so being able to take it on-board allowed me to transport it to Alaska, which was a great benefit. Devin |

Please count me in. rsanders11@kc.rr.com Roy Sanders.
I am currently chasing down my neuromuscular diagnosis. At age 16 months I was diagnosed with Charot Marie Tooth disease, akin to muscular dystrophy. After 11 years of orthopedic surgeries I learned to adapt and move on. 15 years ago I was reclassed to Polio by two neurologist who said my EMG looked like old nerve damage. Now I am on my way to see a specialist because I may have both. BUMMER. The execise plan is different for each diagnosis. My primary doc and I are attempting to get my insurance to pay for the Segway as a mobilitiy devise. If this works I will pass along the news and the language we used to get approved. I will do what I can to help in this United effort. Enjoy your days Roy Roy |
