My hubby is so thoughtful

For my bday today he bought me a Chair lift recliner to use after my surgery. I guess a friend of his mother only used it for 2 months after buying it brand new. Just had it cleaned.

I was telling him a few weeks ago how so many of you were more comfy in a recliner after surgery. I guess he does listen when I talk. LOL.

Sounds like you are in great hands - you are very lucky.

Wow....that was thoughtful. My late Mom had an amazing recliner; electric, leather.
And if ever I need OHS again, I'm also getting one of the taller toilets.
Top of bowl is 17.5 inches high as opposed to mine that is 14.5 inches.
I really hated to ask hubby to hold my hand so I wouldn't lose my balance when I was lightheaded and feeling weak.
Is it tacky to ask for a new toilet for a b-day present? HA HA HA

I also got a recliner for my birthday (one week before AVR), along with a new refrigerator and a new kitchen floor! Might as well have something to show for it besides a scar!

I would ask for a toilet if it would give me some independence. LOL

Hmmmm, what else can you parlay this into? A new wardrobe that's easy to put on and take off after surgery?

Wow Mary, You are a lucky woman!! I thought me bday was done with the new laptop, new bedding and roses. I never expected a recliner on top of everything. I could really use a a new fridge. Guess I will have to wait til the next holiday. LOL

Great gift and I know you will put it to good use!

And I thought it was called selective deafness husbanditis!
Goes with selective deafness felinis and selective deafness caninis.

I bought a toilet seat extender (made it taller) at the medical supply store after my surgery. $40. If you have a low sitter, you might consider that, as well as the lovely recliner.
Now I have a new taller toilet after the bathroom remodel, but I still have that seat, in waiting for the next surgery, just in case.

Laurie....you made me nervous when you said "low sitter"......ha ha....I know what u were thinking.

Enjoy the chair and the 'listening' considerate hubby!
