Josh and I thought it would be a tight squeeze when we saw how Ms M wanted her tall fridge-freezer moved from one room to another and her hospital bed manoeuvred into a better position. But we set to work emptying the fridge of its contents to make it lighter, then with some systematic floor clearing we soon had the appliance through the doorway – it fitted with just millimetres to spare. Luckily Ms M had a measuring tape so we could judge whether the bed would fit in a new place in the alcove, making the room tidier and safer. A bit more shifting and success again! We had time to change a couple of light bulbs and chat to Ms M about her plans for sprucing up her home in future.
