A gentleman in his forties in a wheelchair needs someone to accompany him downtown to the hospital for injections once every three months. He uses adapted transport, but is allowed to have someone travel with him. He lives in Lachine. This gentleman also has a speech problem which means the advocate will need to report to his mother on how the appointment went.
