Our (USA) Veteran's Administration has been rightfully bashed in the press and by Congress the last few years. It is nice to read that sometimes they do get it right.

I consider myself very fortunate to receive my healthcare through the VA. All in all I have few complaints about the quality of service I've received.

This is actually my 4th upgrade and I haven't even mentioned my Lamborghini ride. I have a totally awesome power wheelchair. Probably 2,000 Loonies. Interesting story - When told that I didn't qualify for such an expensive wheelchair, my tiny, 80 pound Physical Therapist simply waltzed into the showroom and drove off with it.

My veteran's advocate then boosted me to a higher eligibility to qualify me for the wheelchair.
