It has been a long time since I have added to my blog. Starting last September I was very ill and in the hospital and rehab. Finally, after three months I came home to home health care and a stretch of therapy. I am now glad to be back.

For starters, my walker grip is almost in production. Just as soon as we get the mold we will start making grips that fit over existing walkers. They also will be ergonomic and much more comfortable than a round tube. Several people have helped with this design, including a doctor and therapists plus other individuals. The walker grip is also light weight and can be cleaned easily. There will be removable straps to hold the hands onto the grips, for stroke victims. These grips will be extremely simple to attach. I do not intend to have a great choice of colors, maybe just black and granite.

I have more ideas for grip 'add-ons', and other types of grips. If you have questions or ideas, I will try to answer, and am open to others ideas. Please keep an eye on this blog. The American dream is still alive and well, and I'm full speed ahead.

Our New Grip Design


With our ongoing effort to improve our crutch grip, we are pleased to announce our new design.
Recently, we took this improved grip to the National Physical Therapist Convention in Las Vegas, where we received some very positive feedback.
More information on this development will follow soon but for now, here is the first picture!
