SHOWER SAFETY

 

It's been a busy morning installing safety bars in our bathroom. Mary needs these in place before she gets home so today I got the job done. The bar over the toilet was easy, no tile to drill through.

The tile in the shower was harder than concrete so it took two diamond drill bits to drill four holes.

I smothered the screws in goop to prevent water from seeping through to the drywall. Your shower stall can get very nasty with mold when that happens.

Done and secure. I may add a second bar but will see how Mary manages with this.

Mary is still at the rehab hospital but she is able to sit up in bed and use her walker to get around. All good signs of progress

Thanks for keeping an eye on us. I will let you know when Mary gets her discharge papers

UPDATE

Mary met with her doctors yesterday and they agreed she will be able to go home Friday. That is wonderful news and she can't wait to be home. Leanne will also come to help get Mary settled and to make sure the food I prepare is fit to eat.

Thanks again for all your prayers and words of encouragement. They were greatly appreciated and uplifting.
