Products:
MedLift Here is a link to the manufacturer of my recliner chair that I use every day.
Select Comfort Here is a link to the best bed for SCI. The sleep number bed. I love it. I have not had even one bed sore.
Tempur-Pedic I tried this bed out. It was pretty cool, but I like the sleep number bed better. My medical supplier has one and he loves his though.
KEEN TAOS SHOES Here is a link to find the shoes I wear. They open really wide to allow for swollen feet and have an elastic draw string so you don't have to tie them. They also have large loops on the tongue and heel. I love these shoes and I get compliments on them all the time.
Toilet Seat Here is a link to where you can find the toilet seat I use. Be sure to select "Padded Seat" when ordering. This seat works really well for SCI with rods in their back preventing them from bending and reaching during the bowel program.
