Try nursing homes, ask them, they might be able to tell you what they do with the wheelchair after someone is deceased or even maybe somewhere you might be able to acquire one.

My mother is about to turn 52 this year, but she is young at heart. She is my best friend. For seven years she has been in and out of nursing homes due to morbid obesity (which she still struggles with even after having risked her life to get roux-n-y gastric bypass that she was faithfully promised by her physician at the time would be the be-all-end all to her weight problem) and a broken leg that the Dallas, Texas veteran's hospital (where she was being seen at the time because my father is a permanently disabled war veteran and she gets health care because she is his wife) repaired improperly.

We are finally bringing her home, but we either need a van gifted, or even if someone would take a chance on us and let us pay one off, that would be a miracle! We need a heavy-duty full size van with a heavy-duty power wheelchair lift (my mother is 350 lbs before you even take the weight of her power chair into account). Thank you for your help and God bless!

I would suggest that you check with your local United Way office. They can direct you to various local non-profit agencies that might be able to help you.
