Knowing that we have several Catters that are handicapped, I wanted to show you this........Lifeslider It's a plastic chair type device that quickly and safely allows small folks to help big folks down stairs, etc. Check it out. Don't know how much they are, but am trying to find out. If not HorribleBucks, I think I will start a fundraiser here to get some for the Fire Dept, Search and Rescue, etc. (Just a coincidence that it is Mr. Sorcha's cousin and uncle who developed it......grin) |

Much better than anything we ever trained with when I was an EMT. Should be standard equipment for any fire and rescuse. Ought to get them to use it on Third Watch and ER! kat |
