New equipment

Susan’s wheelchair and bedside commode were delivered today, two necessities that tell of her recently worsened condition. Both are welcome tools right now. The chair reduces the risk of her falling while cutting the time it can take to move from place to place in the house, to the car, at church, and so on. The commode chair gives her a more stable seat over the toilet and makes for less of a lift for me when transferring her. As valuable as I find these to be, we’re counting on them being temporary. I hope to migrate from the wheelchair back to the walker, and then back to the cane. That’s a worthy goal.
