(well as soon as my chiro gets back and I can actually move but oh well) I actually got the courage to visit Making Life Easy and am now the proud owner of a reacher, a dressing stick and a cane that is actually appropriate for my injuries…. Next we will be looking at a reclining lift chair (electronic, it will lie me back and help me get up without effort – this will reduce the strain on the injuries) and rails for the Loo so that I can get myself up without bringing my cane in with me!!I can’t believe it has taken me this long to get all this stuff but for a long time I was optimistic that I would heal and any purchases like that would be a waste of money and space…. My doctor has been telling me for some time now that it will almost certainly be permanent and all we can hope for is an increase in mobility so it is long overdue that I just admit that I need help and move on. These tools are here for my independence and if they can help me lead a normalish life and let Liam get back to work so much the better.I do feel a little like an old lady tho – thankfully lift chairs now come in quite attractive microsuede!
