ADA question My son just got a wheelchair last week. We've known about this and discussed this at length with the school. The nurse called and said they have to have a letter from the doctor in order for him to use the wheelchair at school. Like, I can't bring him to school on Monday without it. Is that legal? The doctor faxed one over and it's taken care of, but the nurse just laughed when I told her what I needed and said she has never had to do that before.

Huh?

Your son has a wheelchair that you've known about.

You want him to use it at school, so you talked to the nurse, and she like told you that he needs to come to school with the chair?

What's the problem?
