I've been thinking of inventing some kind of device to help old people who fall down and can't get themselves up. No ideas yet, but I'm thinking of calling it the "Geezer Easer."

It wasn't the first time Fromal, who has a little trouble with her legs, has been stuck in the bathtub. A few weeks ago she lay in the tub all day.

Brilliant lady.

I've always told my kids to not do this, but I set a poor example. (Just don't tell them.)

I don't think it was her size that got her stuck...seems she was too weak to lift herself out.

Fromal's family plans to add railings and a tub chair in her bathroom

I urge all Freepers with elderly parents to not wait for a tragedy, add the rails now!

""How can you sleep in a bathtub?" "


Go to Las Vegas with 5 people and only rent a single room...
