My little girl she’s 14 months has recently been measured for a wheelchair/buggy she has cerebral palsy and can’t support herself in a regular pram she can’t sit and has poor trunk control
what I’m really wanting to know is what’s this wheelchair gonna look like?

Is It gonna be a Maclaren major pushchair?

I woudln't have though a Mclaren buggy woudl give nearly enough support from what you describe. Have you asked what she has been measured for?

To be honest it was a massive shock I didn’t ask anything, my head went blank. I was thinking the same tho that it would offer her the support she needs xx
