Lincare has little "double male" couplers that allow you to hook two lines of tubing together. We used to hook and extra section of tubing onto the 25 footer so that Kathy could reach the walk-in shower and have enough tubing to run it up, over, and down again so she could sit on the shower bench to wash. I never inquired as to whether it affected the proper liter flow from reaching her nasal cannula, but it worked ok short term for her to grab a shower and do her hair in the bathroom off the kitchen with her concentrator in the front part of the house.

Well Physical Therapy came today for an hour. Did a lot of various exercises. Walked 300 years in hallway which he said was good considering surgery but I think that is not good. I need more yards than that just to do daily activities like Busing to grocery stores and the Mall to do a little walking. I do like the shopping online at Walmart and Aldi's so that will definitely help while my distance walking improves. The Mall may take me some time......

You don't need a therapist for that, amirite? |

It's a start. If you are a Star Wars fan, it is A New Beginning.

You don't need a therapist for that, amirite? I know but he first had to check the distance where I will walk. He gave me a bunch of exercises to do each day 2 or 3 times. |
