Re: Jane's Visit With the Pulmodude Yesterday

[Guest guest]

Before spending the money on a rollator, shop around a bit. They come in many

different sizes with many features. Also, they're made for different weights.

I'm no Barbie doll anymore. So, I had to go for a more sturdy one. Also, look

online for a site that has " durable medical equipment " . In Massachusetts, we

have a site called assistive technologies.com. You can post an ad for things you

have but don't need any longer or things you need. Not sure if there's one down

there. It might be worth a shot though.
