4. Poncho - Because a coat may be too bulky or cumbersome to arrange in public, we have found a poncho to be a very suitable alternative. Mine is really nothing more than a large square of closely woven, light-weight wool (such as a stadium blanket) with a jacket type zipper up the front and a draw-string hood. It goes on easily as a cape, allows maximum arm motion and when I arrive indoors, it can be unzipped and folded over the back of the wheelchair without my having to move. (See Appendix I, drawing 8)
5. Shoes - Because of poor muscle tone in my legs, any days my feet sweet making it difficult or even impossible to wear stiff "people" shoes. The solution we found to this problem is a soft, foldable travel shoe, about one size larger. They come in many styles and colors, so they look good while preventing the feet from getting pressure marks.
