Hi all. I'm appealing for your to help me raise – £8,000 ex VAT for a Joystick Tramper.(Please note) it is thought that I would not have the strength for a Recumbent trike, so am now been advised to get a TRAMPER which is powered and joystick controlled which would still get me up on the hills. I live in Lancing West Sussex & I'm worried about my increasing health due to weight issues not helped by my disability. I suffer Severe rheumatoid arthritis in all my joints & severe back pain & occassionely have to use an electric wheelchair kindly donated by the wheelchair trust as I cannot use a stick for support e.g because I had smashed to pieces both shoulder joints amongst other injuries back in November 92 after being hit by a car & knocked 14ft in the air & 50ft down the road. I was dead for 2 minutes, but 2 nurses had bought me back as they visited me to say they had. If I had known how things were going to be like now back then, ide have been better off dead as much as I appreciate what they had done. My health has got worse over the years since I had several ops to remove my right side shoulder joint which was replaced with metal plate & arm amputated from the elbow. My left shoulder was also damage beyond repair & had since healed in a damaged condition. Only recently it was suggested by a consultant that I have a full shoulder replacement, only then to find out by first an Xray, then a scan to show my shoulder had crumbled and is beyond repair. I cannot excercise as much as ide like due to all the pain, but what would help is a Tramper as shown, where I can comfortably sit right back & steer + controls gear, brakes e.g from one hand. But, fortunately this comes at a cost which is money I simply don't. I cannot work as much as ide like too & only get IS & DLA, so your support is very much needed & would be so much appreciated beyond words that can be described as it would help me get back to cycling again to enjoy the great outdoors & more importantly to help me lose weight doing what I love at the same time. Please help me if you can. I'm happy to send some sort of proof if requested & even a visit by appointment. Tony Lovell
