Bathroom Redesign

I want to redesign the bathroom to include a fully handicap accessible design for my dad, including one of those nice walk in bathtubs that lets the handicapped person step into the bath and then fill it with water.

My mom and I had discussed several times getting dad one of the things to make it easier for bathing him, but now that I am all alone in trying to help him with his bathing and everything a walk in tub has gone from a "that would be nice" to an essential element of caregiving. It is just too dangerous without my mom's help to get him in and out of the standard large size bathtub that we currently have in the bathroom.

I love my current tub, which is long enough I can stretch out and float in it when it is full, but my dad's safety comes first and as soon as I can sort out how to afford one, I am getting him one of the walk in tubs.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.

I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.

Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.

If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.

Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
