[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 169403, member: 1963"] husband found a wheeled barstool to be indespible for kitchen work once he became unable to walk. He could scoot from counter to sink to stove on it. He also had a "reacher": a stick with pincers on the end of it that could be used to pick items off the floor or hold a cloth/sponge for cleaning. I dunno if the barstool idea would work for you. husband's balance was very good right to the end and he was a small man and very thin. I'd be worried you might fall, but it might be something to look into. I know they make barstools with backs and arms, which might be safer. The "reachers" are available at medical supply houses and even some "drug stores" (like Walgreens or CVS) [/QUOTE]
