hey all, Im looking for any help in finding the company or technical name for "chicken fat". It is a piece of jelly like material that is draped over the wc tire in order to protect your bum during transfers. Does anybody know what Im talking about? haha any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
richard

I thought we were the only ones that called it that :crash: did you go to the shepherd center? that's what they called it there....I believe that it's also called an "action pad" I know you can get them on most medical supply websites...try sammonspreston.com they have just about everything....
God will never give me anything that I cannot handle.....I just wish he didn't trust me so much!
