Staying Active:
Sarah’s Story
Diagnosis: Spinal Muscular Atrophy – Type II | Numotion Customer Since 1996
Sarah has been a Numotion customer for 21 years and received her first chair when she was 2 1⁄2 years old. She is currently in her third Permobil Stander.
“Numotion has been a part of my life since I was a small child. My chair provides me independence. If I did not have my power wheelchair, I would be stuck in one place.
Sarah
I could not do what I do today.”
Sarah is a student, professional, advocate and athlete. She lives a
busy, active lifestyle that she says wouldn’t be possible without her
Numotion team. Sarah has a bachelor’s degree in rehab services and works part time at Nestlé Purina. She is also enrolled at St. Louis University, where she expects to graduate with a master’s in public administration. Her local Numotion location keeps her power wheelchair functioning, so she never has to slow down.
“I am incredibly thankful to my ATP for fitting me for my new chairs. I am also thankful for all of the technicians that have helped me over the years by fixing random problems that happen at odd hours.”
