Earlier this week Margaret suffered a Small Stroke (The GP's terminology) which has left her considerably weaker down her right side.
She now has problems using knife and fork or even spoon, and drags her right leg when walking.
The biggest problem however is getting her into and out of the bath.
The Occupational Therapist is coming on Monday with suggestiions and no doubt pamphlets of various aids.
However I would be grateful if anyone has experience of bathing aids for similarly affected people. As I prefer users practical knowledge to theoretical offerings by OTs. It will at least give me some guidelines if she offers me a choice of appliances.
You can send a private message if you can help.
Thank you
