I search and got an idea about what it looks likemost of the pictures for sale were ones that screw onto the bath tube so there is a bar to hold onto as you get out of the tub> I am glad that you like yours.

Oh, I just looked too and it goes on the bath! I had hoped they'd put one on the wall higher... or both.
I hope you find it helpful bobby and let us know if you start feeling safer about bath time.

On having 2nd look at it, it'll probably help you get up from sitting in the bath. Are you able to hold on to firmly when stepping over the actual bath rail onto the floor.

that is what i want it for. i am still too terrified and my legs and balance are now worse. i will tell you when i try it.. i hope those sponge baths are adequate.

I am sorry your balance is not good and that you feel weak shaky. In time with effort I think that you can get back to health. You are not eating much so that may be contributing to the problem of weakness.

i think if i can lose a lot more weight i would have less to carry and making walking and balance much easier. i hadn't recovered from the fall i took before i fell getting out of the tub. the fall from the tub was so awful.

I am so sorry you keep falling, do you have a medic alert button?
If you don't have one then I think you should get one.

other people have also suggested it but i don't want to spend the money and i can always crawl. if i were knocked unconscious i couldn't use it anyway..
all of a sudden my allergies have almost gone away. i think they started after i had the vaccine. my spelling deteriorated also when i got the vaccine. i am hoping that might come back too.
i made such a fool of myself when i sent a message to my doctor thinking that i didn't get the flu shot. i was talking a lot and didn't remember. i didn't see a band-aid but i only looked on one arm. three hours later i saw the other band-aid and i wrote him and told him. i really lost it. could it have been a senior moment.
