Hey everyone Ralph here with another breathtaking article!
For those of you don’t know, I have a disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy. (SMA) and ever since I was a young Padawan it has tried to use the dark side to bring its own challenges to bring me down. One of the main things that has been a hindrance on my life has been respiratory problems.
Hi everyone.
My name is Rafael Garcia and I have a condition called Spinal Muscular Atrophy which comes with many hardships, and challenges. In these blogs I'll talk about different subjects, and how they got me to be the person I am today. And how the Freedom Bed changed my life.
ProBed Medical Technologies Inc. is pleased to announce that it will be introducing its range of FREEDOM BEDS™ to European medical professionals, durable medical equipment dealers and end-users at “REHACARE 2018” in Duesseldorf, Germany, from September 26th to September 29th, 2018.
In October of 2017, ProBed was honoured to assist a New England family in need. Partnering with the Jett Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising awareness and funds for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, ProBed helped the Gaudenzi family take possession of a Freedom Bed lateral rotation sleep system by collaborating with the Jett Giving Fund. ProBed Medical is pleased to participate and give back to those in our community affected by immobility.
Trying to stay healthy with a neuromuscular disease is probably the hardest thing to do.
It’s been a month since I’ve had my Freedom bed and I am doing remarkably well!
Hello everyone Ralph here. I wanted to share a story with you about how something changed my life.
You see when I was two years old I was diagnosed with a disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 2. (SMA) it was at that same age where doctors told me I wasn't going to make it past the age of Ten. But by a miracle and good care I was able to make it to the age I’m at now.
Critically ill patients and those living with the challenges of paraplegia and quadriplegia are particularly prone to both pulmonary complications and pressure-related injuries, more commonly referred to as bedsores. Thankfully, the 1970’s saw the introduction of Continuous Lateral Rotation Therapy (CLRT) as a profound and progressive treatment protocol for individuals dealing with the ongoing effects of immobility and prolonged bed rest.
Approximately 30 years ago, a teenage boy was enjoying an afternoon of mountain biking in the mountainous interior of British Columbia, Canada. An unforeseen root, or other object, caused him to be thrown from his bike, rendering him a quadriplegic.
Life dictates that our parents assume the role as our primary caregivers until we can care for ourselves. Somewhere along life’s journey, we may be called upon to assume the role of caregivers for them due to age and/or disability.
When we’re children, our parents do everything in their power to make our lives as perfect as possible. As kids, we’re the recipients of lovingly cooked meals, bedtime stories and all the other little things that help us to feel loved, protected and like we truly matter.
"The product is really only surpassed by the excellent customer service. ProBed was there for any questions, any time of the day, even in the middle of the night. Two thumbs up, or five stars as they say. The product really helped our family during a difficult period.”
