Guest guest Posted February 1, 2001 Report Share Posted February 1, 2001 Thanks for your idea. We thought of something like that. Our only thought is that there are times when he is home alone, and pretty much bound to his chair. We are trying to come up with a solution that he could manipulate by himself. If we tied it on, then if he had to get up to use the restroom, with his balance as bad as it already is, we'd be setting him up for tumble. Really appreciate your thoughts...
