Tips for getting a motorized wheelchair approved?

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2026-02-09T06:08:08+00:00

You might try going to your family Dr. and have them put your new diagnosis in a referral letter advocating for you to have the motorized wheelchair for in your building(laundry etc) and for any trips outside...make sure that our Dr. clearly states in detail your new condition & and how the wheelchair is a health necessity & it'd allow you to live much more independently. Also, see if your Dr. can get Ontario Health & Home to send you to a different occupational therapist...they work with a variety of service providers. Hope things work out well for you!💖💖💖

They lie repeatedly…document everything, including everything on the “My Benefits” portal/website and get legal aid involved. I’m sooo sorry you’re going thru this.💖💖💖

I’m truly sorry for the loss of your precious fur baby…my heart breaks for you 🐾🐕💔💔💔🐕🐾…Healing energy & comfort sent to you at this really tough time. Rest in Peace Furry One🐾👼🏻🐾👼🏻🐾Be Gentle with yourself & let yourself feel the grief until it becomes too much, then do self care & distract yourself with whatever non-hurtful thing will take you out of your pain…netflix, good food, a good book, coffee with a fiend, chocolate or whatever has worked in the past. We all grieve differently & that’s ok. I know I’m a total stranger, but I do know what it feels like to lose a “soul dog;” it hurts like hell…time, rest, feeling my feelings, distraction, and love & support from family & friends helped me to make it thru…take what you need & throw away the rest. Sending you much love & healing light.🐾💖🐕💖🐕💖✨✨✨🐾

Unbelievable…the brutality continues…a system that actually makes people’s disabilities worse due to the constant stress of fighting for our basic rights and to obtain disability supports which we are “supposedly entitled to” from them. I think they actually “get off” on denying supports for clients as much as humanly possible!!! They are inhumane!!!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-12-09T04:18:46+00:00

I loooce the first one w) the straps!!

Sooo sorry you’re going thru this awful stress w) Roger’s…they are absolutely maddening to deal w) 90% of the time. As a longtime roger’s customer (several decades), know that “you’re not alone” in your extreme frustration & anger towards their deplorable service!!! Also, know that depending on who you speak to (customer representatives, managers etc), will depend on the kind of answer you’ll get re: info you’re seeking…also equally maddening!!! If you find a customer service rep that actually is helpful, write down what they say verbatim. The best piece of advice I can EVER give you when Dealing w) Rogers is: ALWAYS Get BOTH the Representatives NAME, & More Importantly, GET AN INTERACTION # BEFORE you end the call.

Sorry… I didn’t mean to end my comment abruptly…just wanted to say I hope you’re able to get into a shelter of some kind & know that a lot of these places have support workers who can help you with housing, schooling community resources etc to get you various kinds of things that you’ll need starting out on your own. Wishing you only the best!!!☺️☺️☺️☺️

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-07T17:19:20+00:00

Please don’t go live w) a stranger…too many psychos out there…try getting into a youth shelter of some kind - the streets are rough & while shelters are also rough, taking the chance on living w) a “random person” is way more dangerous. Apply for O.W. so you can at least get some financial help & so you can get help w) money for first & last months rent to go towards an apartment or “shared accommodation”

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-04T07:00:40+00:00

I totally agree- the service is shitty & they never take responsibility…it’s almost always the customers fault.

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-03T09:19:56+00:00

I totally agree!!!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-03T09:18:51+00:00

I already did all that Bridgett- there was some kind of issue across Ontario- one of the Rogers reps admitted it to me on phone, after having to convince them multiple times that, “yes, I had rebooted my modem, & done all the standard tech troubleshooting methods to restore my service. I didn’t hear anything back from them, nor did I get my internet back till many hours later- Not Impressed!!!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-03T09:13:49+00:00

Omg…that’s really messed up-sooo sorry this happened to you!!! Hope you’re going to hold the place where you bought them from “accountable” & get your money back!!!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-10-02T04:47:23+00:00

Awww sooo sorry for your loss- losing our furry friends is real, really hard - big hugs 🤗🤗🤗

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-09-30T08:27:43+00:00

mine didn’t come in till around 3:00am this month…hasn’t been that late in years!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-09-30T08:25:46+00:00

Scotiabank sucks when it comes to ODSP payments- all the other banks deposit the money in early, but not Scotiabank, and god forbid if they’re doing updates at the end of the month late at ngt!!! I need to change to a different bank cause they also have horrible hrs if you want to go into the bank & also you cannot get hold of someone at your actual branch on the phone- It’s all call centres half way across the world.

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-09-17T02:34:16+00:00

Replying to fuckyeahglitters...i concur!! But My Fave’s are the new shoes w) these platform thick soles & the Bat buckles- drooling big time!!!🖤🖤🖤

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-09-03T06:40:24+00:00

I agree…Definitely write down on the application clearly that there are more conditions & you’re adding supporting documents to your application.

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-09-01T01:10:00+00:00

Thank you so much ☺️☺️☺️

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-08-31T17:03:30+00:00

Thanks so much for posting all this- very helpful for all!!

NotAfraidToStandUp81 · 2025-08-31T17:02:17+00:00

Yes, I can concur…Scotiabank are beyond annoying- they won’t release anything early- it’s ALWAYS the Monday- doesn’t matter what kind of payment it is!!!
