I'll try not to get started on "wheelchair-bounded" in case English is not your first language, but it is NOT an acceptable thing to say, it's the N-word of wheelchairs. Anyway, electric wheelchair is different, electric is for people who don't have use of their arms.
LOL that very much tickles my irony as I recently left the local university because of access issues!
English is well known for not being the most well used by many people born deaf.
So you probably won't be trouble again by many people trying to help you.
