So much safer than trying to use that safety belt and the caregiver’s strength

We would have never made it without my husband FOOTBAR® Walker. He is 6’5” and I’m 5’3”, so my trying to pull him up and help him walk was a challenge. I damaged both shoulders and was in pain all the time. We were told about the FOOTBAR® Walker, I called and talked to Nancy and took my husband to their place of business and Gary brought a FOOTBAR® Walker out to our vehicle and my husband stood up by the car and tried the walker. We were so excited that he really did like the walker and we got one. Besides the fact that this FOOTBAR® Walker kept my husband out of the nursing home, it also allowed me to have surgery on my right shoulder. I thank God often that we were introduced to the FOOTBAR® Walker and I was getting to keep my husband home and get my shoulder fixed. I am having my left shoulder fixed soon. I thank God that they invented this FOOTBAR® Walker. It is the best thing that could have happened to us, for my Husband to be able to pull himself up without me having to pull on him. I just wish that we had known about the FOOTBAR® Walker earlier so I would not have hurt myself to the point that I could barely take care of myself. I was the only help my husband had before. I’m thankful my shoulders were all that I had damaged and not my back too. I recommend this FOOTBAR® Walker to everyone who will listen, every caregiver needs this walker for the sake of both the patient and the caregiver, if used according to the directions, which are very easy, it is so much safer than trying to use that safety belt and the caregiver’s strength.
