Trouser query
« on: January 07, 2010, 10:12:31 AM »
I have only just realised that in order to put on my trousers in the morning I have to lean on a wall in order to stop myself from falling over.

Is this normal?

It's an age thing the alternative is hopping around the room for a while before falling over in an undignified heap.
I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

Depends on the size of the bedroom. Most ELDERLY people sit on the bed to put their trousers on. I, fortunately, am still able to stand on one leg.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Sit on the edge of the bed, pull trousers over feet and legs, make sure feet are clear of trousers. When you have the waist band up to upper thigh level, slowly stand up and pull trousers over your fat arse. Fasten trousers at waist. Remember to do up the fly.

I cannot be responsible for your lack of co-ordination but the above described method is the one I have seen employed with success by many ELDERLY men in hospital wards over recent years ~ they too have to be reminded to zip up their fly, usually by a nurse. ::)
