Making A Stand
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Redbridge.
- Monday, 6th of November 2023
Mrs H is a bed bound stroke victim who is unable to control the direction her eyes move so her Daughter needs to move the TV depending which way Mum’s eyes are looking therefore a portable TV stand was required.
The TV was anything but portable it was enormous! Clearly making sure the stand was put together properly was paramount for such a large monitor and I took my time to make sure everything was just so.
Mrs H’s Daughter was lovely making sure I was comfortable, insisting I used cushions whilst working on the floor and offering helpful suggestions if I looked a bit stuck on the instructions, we got on very well chatting away together, the time flew by and we were very pleased with the resulting TV stand. More importantly “Mum” who had been non communicative through out was very vocal about how pleased she was with the result too.
