Hello all,
I do not post often to this email group (mostly post on the TMA site itself). I
just wanted to share some good news! I got a letter from school (I am in my
3rd and last yr of nursing school) stating that I won the Gail Hodson Award for
Nursing. It's based on clinical skills/interaction with patients, grades and
giving back to the school/dept, like volunteering. It's worth $200. I am so
happy and excited! The awards ceremony is Nov 22. I can't wait!

Isn't there a saying about a boy and his toys? I'm glad your having fun.
My neighbor has one of those new leaf blowers that he uses without a cord. He
walks up and down the sidewalk showing off his powers.

We have three large maple trees in our yard. Shade in summer and
stunning beauty in October. And a ton of leaves in November.
I strapped the power head of the shop vacuum to the arm of the
wheelchair, plugged in the long, outdoor extension cord, and roared
off to blow leaves, wig-wagging to clear a strip about six feet wide.
It violated the tranquility of our home, but I felt that for once I
was doing something useful.

Subject: [TMIC] folding grab bar
A few months ago I installed grab bars on the wall on each side of
the toilet. When they are not being used, they fold up against the
wall. Each bar is a loop with the bottom offset inward and below the
top - I use the lower level initially and switch to the upper to
transfer to my walker or the wheelchair.
The bars are made by Healthcraft Products of Ottawa, models PT-WR32R
and PT-WR32L.

I bought the pair from ActiveForever for 342.70 including shipping,
but I cannot find the web reference. Here's another source:

These bars are STURDY. They are speced at 350 pounds each. I know I
have lurched against them and dragged myself up by pulling.
I recommend them.

Subject: [TMIC] infra red sauna
Hi everyone
Are there people with TM who have expirence with a infra red sauna? Because i
have problems with also heat, swetting is a lot less below the DX parts. Also a
hot tub did not give me more energy but made my leggs worse. But in cold times,
as they come up now, it lookes a very nice idea for warming up my body. The
question for me is than, can I stand up and come out again.

Hi Wim
I used to use an infra red sauna at the gym I was going
to. At first it seemed to be just fine, but then after a few visits, it
definitely made my legs worse. As in, the banding increased and
they were not wanting to walk well. But as for the sweat – I was surprised
that even my lower legs were wet with water! Good luck with your
decision.
