There was a very brief fitting article way back in issue 40 (apr/may 1992) about making fit adjustments for a wheelchair-bound individual. You also may want to contact Jinni Nastiuk (contact information below). She offers patterns for people with special needs, and she has written quite a few books on fitting.
