Stairlift Helps Restore Safety

Through WNC Bridge Foundation’s Greatest Needs Fund, Shoshana of Murphy, NC, received a life-changing stairlift after enduring multiple falls that resulted in severe injuries, including broken bones and a partial hip replacement.

Reflecting on the difference it made, Shoshana shared, “The first day I got the lift, I was so happy because I could go to the grocery store with my daughter without exhausting myself. I no longer fear falling on the stairs—it’s such a joy.”

She recounted the challenges she faced before, saying, “I had to pull myself up by grasping the spindles, with my daughter pushing me forward so I wouldn’t fall backward.” Shoshana expressed deep gratitude to donors, saying, “Thank you all so very much! This wonderful ‘machine’ has given me hope beyond measure.”

With her new stairlift, Soshana no longer fears the stairs and can safely navigate her home.
