For those with disabled family members...

I am a social worker and I just got something very interesting that came today on my desk. If you FM me I will give more clear specific details. There is a new non profit organization called MAT (mobility Air Transport) that accomodates people in wheelchairs, as well as developmentally disabled people and I even think will allow seeing eye dogs aboard. The planes look very interesting. Looks like there are a few rows of seat while it also has a big open space in the back for passengers to stay in their wheelchairs. Anyone who is interested in more info email How great is this! Looks like we have come along way in helping out the disabled.

That's wonderful; my sister has spinabifida but walks with a cane, drives with hand controls, etc...but I would still be interested to see this. She's also a social worker and LMFT (licensed marriage/fam therapist).

Thanks! She may have gotten it but I will check with her! We also have very close family friends who have kids (now adults) with CP.
