Rubber Duckie, you're the one
You make bath time lots of fun

Bless her heart, and I mean that in the BEST way!

Good for her — but this story illustrates why 90-year-olds should be living with family, not alone.

I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!!!!

I woke up early one Saturday morning after a vertebrae slipped in the lower back. After being pried up from the bed (took about 1/2 hour) I made it the few steps to the bathroom and got into a tub of hot water adding more hot water when it got cool. I stayed there for the best part of the next 48 hours unil the doctor’s office opened on Monday. The car trip into the office was about the most painful experience in my life.

One sure gets water-logged after the first few hours. That poor lady! I can’t imagine being alone for something like that. At least someone brought me food and water, and it wasn’t no rubber duck. (Note to self: put rubber duck near bathtub, just in case).

At least now she is squeaky clean.

This happened to my mom about 7 years ago...4 days, I was out of town and when I got back couldn’t reach her by phone - dashed to her house, no answer at the door, let myself in.

Found the bathroom locked, yelled mom, mom - no answer, scared me to death. It was summertime and about 96 degrees inside her house. Picked the bathroom lock and found her. No water in tub, but dehydrated from high heat in house. Scary incident - was in hospital 2 weeks....now under full care with Alzheimers - sickening desease, she doesn’t even remember me anymore.

OK, make that a rubber duck and a faux microphone.

Perhaps everyone over 80 should have a “walk in bathtub”. At least they could let the water out and crawl out, if they can’t stand up.

sickening desease, she doesn’t even remember me anymore.

I'm so sorry. I cannot imagine not remembering my children.

[NucSubs]

Awesome movie.

"I'm so sorry. I cannot imagine not remembering my children."

Ahem, you don't have any children.

[mamelukesabre]

I don’t understand this. Why couldn’t you roll onto your side and then get on your hands and knees if you are too week to stand up from a seated position?

[Slings and Arrows]

Finally, a story involving rubber toys that doesn't go straight to the Smokey Backroom!

[Freedom2specul8]

LoL!

“Knock knock”
