(OP) User ID: 77354011 United States 02/20/2020 06:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Dear tn Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14931885 My daughter passed away from epilepsy. I know how valuable what you designed will be. Thank you. I also have a friend whose daughter is an invalid. Her husband has leukemia and she has breast cancer. I hope this goes to market soon as caring for an invalid in these circumstances is tough. I actually approached a bio engineer at a university long ago pitching this idea. My idea was using some type of blow up system like like jackets have. I’m sure your patent is much more feasible. God bless you for helping the helpers. So sad to read this something like this exists, believe it or not! will find link don't remember the name of it. It is an inflatable cube you put under the fallen person. Takes some time to inflate, and the person is not super steady. But it is a workable approach for some here it is!

Oh Lawd, i appreciate the words, and we have heard this over and over. Know that Sharktank demands unbelievable sales goals while owning the majority of your product, and full ownership of your patent. Makes a great TV show, but sux for the inventor. good advertisement only if you refuse their offers. For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who don't believe, no proof is possible.

User ID: 78431949 Australia 02/21/2020 01:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank YOU Thank YOU Thank YOU Thank YOU Thank YOU I will (may) turn 76 on Sunday, final stage C.O.P.D.. My wonderful wife of 56 years and I are mainly independent, apart from a lady helping me shower 3 days a week. Just two days ago, my wife and I spoke on this, and set a couple of rules to follow. NO rushing to help. NO trying to lift the other. RING 911 or 000 or whatever FIRST. Stay calm. THINK. PAUSE. THINK. Slow down. The ONE peril we face daily is a fall. So simple. Not a trip, not a stumble, perhaps just moving the head to look around too quickly. This can result so easily in an unstoppable pirouette that lands you (nearly) flat on the floor. Years of taking steroids in an attempt to keep the lungs functioning has resulted in bones that consist more of airholes than bone stuff. ANY sudden impact gives them a chance to disintegrate. Sad but true. The REAL tragedy follows when the devoted partner dashes (ha ha) to assist. There is REALLY nothing they can do, but there's no way you could resist the instinct to try. Result 1. Two highly stressed, helpless old people lying on the floor unable to rise. Waiting for the Shower Lady to arrive. Result 2. Two highly stressed, helpless old people lying on the floor with severe fractures, unable to summon help, suffering absolute agony, knowing the only possible outcome will most probably take a long time to happen. Although your idea will come too late for us, believe me, we will take great comfort in the knowledge things will improve, even a little, for those that follow. Stay well. Although your idea will come too late for us, believe me, we will take great comfort in the knowledge things will improve, even a little, for those that follow. Stay well. |
