Thanks. That may be an option. We live in a raised beach house so we need an exterior lift of some kind.

Look into a chair lift for the stairs. Acorn is one company that installs them. Costs but nowhere as much as an elevator. I have one and it does the job for me. Put it in after I fell down the stairs twice. In our house we have no room for an elevator, though I would like one. I like the picture of your dog. We have two. Good luck

We live in a 2-story house and put in an electric chair that goes up and down the stairs. I am thinking of getting grabbing bars for the shower.

Yes, I also do have a coughling problem.

Thanks for info
