Hi Janette.

Did the slide sheet make an appearance yet? x

[Heather R]

And you are a star for being so positive after all those years x

[matthew55]

Okay but your still a star 😍

[Ellie]

Remember, I am into my 15th year of living with ALS/MND, so I've been subjected to almost everything at this stage, that's all 😏

And that includes almost landing on the floor when a slide sheet was pulled rather vigorously from under me 😅😅

[Nettie]

What will we do without you Ellie? Meant in the nicest possible way. 😍

I know what you mean Matthew, she’s the font of all knowledge 🤩 I wish I was like that x

[Nettie]

Hope that works well, Janette.

Slide sheets can take practice - you don't want it to be pulled the wrong way when it's being removed and end up on the floor 😲

Daft as it seams, read the instructions - some are single layers which slide in one direction only, others are doubled and slide in one direction only.

Good luck x

Phil’s a bit heavy handed so will warn him 🤣 physio said she will show us how to use it Thanks Ellie x

Hi Gordan I’ve spoke to physio this morning and she’s recommended a slide sheet, she’s ordered me one so will see how that works thanks Janette x

Hope you manage to find something that works for you Janette x

[Nettie]

Thanks Ellie, I’ll speak to physio tomorrow x

Honestly if you're struggling and hurting yourself, odious as they are, a hoist sure makes life easier and less stressful. xx

[Nettie]

No Ellie x

[Ellie]

Do you have a hoist Janette?
