hubby went out and picked up my chair yesterday and its wonderful! tried a few in ikea and settled on a chair with armrests, not too deep and extremely comfortable. added a few cushions and now i dont want to get up :D got my own little spot in the corner of the room that suits me just fine.

for the first time in months i got myself up without help :D

    That is great news!! I was so delighted when my new chair was delivered too. Someone comfy to sit and relax is SO important.

    Enjoy.

    Hi Dippy
    That is brilliant news, what a difference it must make, when you have time could you pm me with the name of the chair...I will go along and try it out for myself...they are hard to find the right one.
    You enjoy
    Love

    Hi Dippy, well done, it is difficult at times to find a comfy spot. Glad you are settled in your corner. v030.gif it is on wheels, so we can take you outside in the fine weather. 8)

    Hi Dippy - Nice of your hubby to collect your chair :)

    ive been up and down!! :D i can actually get up and deal with my kids and hubby has noticed that since we got the chair, he hasnt had to help me up once.

    not sure if the weather is helping or not but its still alot easier to get up from compared to the corner suite, i feel like a beached whale trying to roll off :shock: :oops:

    chair has no wheels but a strong hubby to move it if needed :wink:

    Isn't it nice when you can get a little of your independence back. Makes you feel so good.

    Enjoy it.

    love Trish xx
