Vietnam Vet's Wheelchair Breakers, Lowe's Employees Fix It
Posted by nolanola on 7/15/14 at 8:59 pm120

Three Lowe’s employees came up big for a Vietnam vet! When Michael Sulsona's wheel chair broke down in the store, these guys jumped into action. They replaced all the broken parts to make it like “new.” … the military veteran, who lost both legs above the knee, has been waiting TWO YEARS to receive a new wheelchair from the VA.

Did they charge him for the parts? Because it would be more awesome if they didn't.

Awesome. Props to the local manager for allowing the employees to do what they did.

I did an intense search and didn't find it.

VA sent him a new wheel chair today.. Scumbag Mother fricker's
Really? The majority are hard working underpaid people. It's a huge government bureaucracy. Scum bag mother fricker is a bit extreme.

I'm sure if they had a wheelchair they could have given him they would have. The VA employees don't make the rules.

Rather convenient that he's been waiting for a replacement for 2 years and within a week following a news story about strangers in a home improvement store repairing his damaged chair the VA sends him a new one.

Well it does sound like they had one since he got one so quickly. Also, at some level of the VA employees are making the decisions or just don't care to properly do their jobs. I don't think the above comment was directed at all VA employees but the system instead.
