Trapped in the ladies room 🥲

Had a get together at a restaurant with some friends from work. I shuffled to the bathroom (started using a walker/rollator) and the door to the ladies bathroom was heavy but I could push it open. I went to the bathroom, then washed my hands and moved toward the door and realized that I would have to pull open the very heavy door. I tried several times, with no success 🙃.
Luckily I had brought me phone in my pocket, so texted my friend to come to my rescue. 🙄 Sheesh!

AngieCanuck it’s upsetting to find yourself stuck anywhere, but at least you were only stuck behind a door. It’s good that you had your phone on you. I’ve gotten very obsessed with having my phone within reach.

On my last outing with a friend, in December, I got stuck on the toilet. The toilet was a bit low, the grab bar was too far forward, and my legs were not cooperating. There’s nothing quite like sitting on the throne, pants around your ankles, contemplating calling for a lift assist.

Fortunately, I was in a single user room instead of the ladies so my husband came to my rescue. Unfortunately, that was the last time I was out beyond range of my own bathroom at home.
