Re: Silly question revisited--getting up from the beach

[Guest guest]

Hi Stan.

When I went to watch the 4th of July fire works I took one of those Plastic chairs that you use outside I hope this helps . Have fun and enjoy the fire works they sure are pretty.

I don't have a plastic chair, and I can't buy one today. My real

question is: Can I lie on the beach and then get up? How? A crane?

Ask the police to help me? Is there a simple rollover technique or

something?

I said the question was silly.

Fellow Lie-ers

I phoned my friend. She has a beach chair that I will borrow, but I

would still like to know if it is probable to get up from a lying

position.

Stan: just try to maintain your hip precautions: roll to your stomach

and come up on your non-operative knee (hands & knees) keeping your op

side straighten, then push w/ your arms and come to standing. It will

help to have your friend help you up. If you can get to kneeling

position on both knees, without flexing your op-hip, then weight bear

on your op side,and bring the other leg forward, foot flat, and stand

up...again, helps to have your hands supported on something, or

someone. As was said prior, it is not the lying down, but the getting

up that is bad. I had a home health patient who had THR, who was doing

all of his exercises on the floor before I came to the home. He started

getting on the floor right out of the hospital.

Have a great time!

Your message came just in time. I was just about ready to turn off

my computer and go out the door.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Je t'embrasse.
