Adaptive Tools List

Here is a list of some of the Physical Adaptive Tools I have used. I have other more interactive tools in my arsenal, but this is a short list of what has been useful for me. *Both walkers and canes. I have what I call my "cane wardrobe" with canes for all occasions *A three-wheeled bike because I don't drive *A "grabber" or an arm extender *Grab bars *Seat raisers *Special utensils (foam forms to make utensils easy to grab) *Special glasses What are some that work for you? I'll give you a hint of my favorite Tool:
It makes my life so much easier! Plus I can get a lot at the market and/or the Library in it. Put your favorite Tools in the comments.

The Toolbox Workbook at Art & The Vineyard

I'm so pleased to say that the copies of the "Self-Advocacy Toolbox Workbook" have arrived! They're in my hot little hands, and I will be signing it an all my other books at the Art & The Vineyard in Eugene, Oregon at 5:30 in the Oregon Authors area. Here's the link: http://www.artandthevineyard.org/artmarketpl.html And here's a great photo that captures what the festival is about.
Come see me! After all, there will be wine... And great books and art. It all goes to support a fabulous cause, the Maude Kerns art Center. See You There!
