Re: New Member Intro. . . .Must Have Medical Items

Posted December 30, 2009 · December 30, 2009

Adrienne, you just reminded me of something I have been meaningto add to the

pre-op/post op medical devices necessary for surgery.

This is a handy dandy item that I got which truly helps me in and out of the

car.

It is called Handy Bar.

You can get it at Amazon for as little as $14.95. The link is below if you

want to see it.

It inserts into the strong steel bar that your door latches into when you

close it. Won't hurt your car at all.

It is incredibly strong and a great aid for getting in and out of the car.

I put it on my 'must have list' along with the sock aid, shower chair,

raised toilet seat, and walker, etc.

I also got a fabulous three wheeled walker with a basket and food tray.

Looks like those spiffy three wheeled golf carts.

I love that thing. Let me know if you want to see a link to it.

(SNIP)....

And going out into the real world makes me

feel like a human again, instead of a housebound crip. Plus being off

the narcotics I can now drive relatively safely (left knee was the op)

so the gas pedal foot ® works OK. Pain getting in and out of the car

though.

Keep at it, it WILL get better.
