[quote=Anonymous]My mom was used to full tub baths all her adult life, when those became not possible and she was living with either my sister or me we used a plastic lawn chair in the tub, with a hand-held shower. She scared me a few times at my house because I had old cast iron enamel clawfoot tubs, and by golly if she didn't get herself in a few times instead of calling for me like our routine had become. Incidentally: I had to redo bathrooms a couple of years ago for other reasons, but I got rid of the clawfoot tubs. Reason? 10 years ago I was painting one of the bathrooms, was in a hurry to finish one last corner, did some shortcuts setting up the ladder, fell on my wrist and shattered it on that unforgiving surface. As much as I love that kind of look, I decided the things were damned dangerous. [/quote]
