Safe Bathtubs Revived My Independence
11/15/2011
I am almost a senior nearing retirement age, but because of an illness, I look and feel much older. I need help in moving around, even in taking a bath. It feels terrible not being able to stand firmly on my own feet. Sometimes I use a crutch, other times I use a wheelchair. But I always need help from another person.
One day I asked my nurse if there is anything I can do to feel better. She recommended taking warm baths with the latest safe bathtubs, which meant having my tub replaced. When she showed me how it looks, I loved it. I ordered one and the nurse took care of the rest, from calling and ordering to the installation.
Once the tub was ready, I wanted to try it right away. I realized I can use either crutches or a wheelchair and I can still help myself to go in and out of the tub. I feel so much better; I realized I am not as helpless as I was. Thanks to this custom walk-in tub, I feel much better about myself.
