My son, 19, had compartment syndrome, 5 surgeries on his leg last month, and is now on the road to recovery. He is in a walking boot. Just yesterday, his physical therapist told him he didn't have to use his crutches. We are bringing them on the trip (we leave today) just in case. I am planning on renting a scooter from an off-site company. I am so confused by the company options and scooter types. I think I have narrowed it down to Apple or Walker. The rep at Walker emphasized how some scooters are not water proof and the GoGo Elite won't work as well when it rains. Anybody have experience with this? There standard scooter is 100.00 more and water resistant. Apple comes with insurance and Walker you can add it for 20.00 total. Which makes the cost the same. Is insurance needed? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
