Gait Belt-Revisited
After a bit of digging and improvisation, I put Satomi in my old rock-wall safety harness. It was a bit big but is wrapped around her pelvis well and gave use some very good hand holds for supporting Satomi while she moved around. I also use the gait belt but only for stability.
Satomi hates the harness and keeps talking about some floor-mounted mechanized crane or whatever. I really don’t think she understands that this harness is only to allow us somewhere to grab when she falls. She forgets that she’s fallen or had a seizure EVERYDAY since it all went wrong back on Christmas day.
I’m sure it’s the Physical Therapist in her. She keeps correcting my grip on the gait belt.
