OT, Very Important Opinion Needed
I'm asking for an opinion of what anyone out there thinks would be the best choice for an extremely important necessity most people need, including me, for good mental health. I obtained two of the very important items when I was in a hospital after a heart attach in 2013. Unfortunately, both are now broken and I must replace them in order to keep some semblance of mental stability. I can order the item or items online and would appreciate an honest opinion of what I should consider purchasing. Thanks for any sincere thoughts. ^_^
What I own now are like this item: http://tinyurl.com/gtm8a8e I'm considering these replacements: http://tinyurl.com/jpoxhca http://tinyurl.com/hvfsj5o http://tinyurl.com/jlarrzh http://tinyurl.com/zy7r9dw https://goo.gl/TqTxgI I'm thinking this one may be my best choice: https://goo.gl/UQkBgv [8~{} Uncle Mental Monster |

However, the walking dead model seems a good fit for you if you don't have back pain. The one with straight jagged teeth looks good too, because sometimes shoulders don't allow for much motion up and down but the sideways sweeping motion might be just right in that case.

These look scratchy enough: https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Sisal.../dp/B007SBFYQE The 'glove' type definitely wouldn't work for me unless my shoulders didn't hurt, and then I wouldn't need them anyway. |

Is that a homemade one? If you can do taxidermy and the gator doesn't mind They sell them in tourist traps in Florida. I suspected as much. I have family there so maybe I can get one shipped to me, maybe some shoes or luggage to match. Mom fooled me once. I thought I got a football. Turned out to be a damn Armadillo purse. https://tinyurl.com/hj5eutp Now *that's* just weird. LOL Being a young boy I told mom to carry the bag. I was disappointed :- \ I did carry the food inside.

OT, Very Important Opinion Needed
Uncle Monster posted for all of us...
I'm asking for an opinion of what anyone out there thinks would be the best choice for an extremely important necessity most people need, including me, for good mental health. I obtained two of the very important items when I was in a hospital after a heart attach in 2013. Unfortunately, both are now broken and I must replace them in order to keep some semblance of mental stability. I can order the item or items online and would appreciate an honest opinion of what I should consider purchasing. Thanks for any sincere thoughts. ^_^ What I own now are like this item: http://tinyurl.com/gtm8a8e ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'm considering these replacements: http://tinyurl.com/jpoxhca http://tinyurl.com/hvfsj5o http://tinyurl.com/jlarrzh http://tinyurl.com/zy7r9dw https://goo.gl/TqTxgI I'm thinking this one may be my best choice: https://goo.gl/UQkBgv [8~{} Uncle Mental Monster The original one. I have two. One for the wife and one for me. I think they are a buck at Ace hardware. I've tried the metal spaghetti type but they didn't give me the satisfaction... I don't know about the rubber block one, doesn't appear it would provide the same level of performance. In the final analysis it's all personal preference... -- Tekkie |

Yes, that works well for me also. My portable unit with the shoehorn sits near my bed for easy access. Yes, it's hard to rub your back on the doorframe when you're lying in bed. I can send you a section of doorframe so you can have a portable unit. How long? 24" do it? |

My bed is next to the window and and I need to make a bracket to attach it to the window frame and the bed. I'll send you my shipping address by email. |
