My daughter helps me. I bought a shower chair that has a seat that you sit on outside the tub and it slides you inside the tub & back out again when you are thru. I have scoliosis & have shrunk so much that I cant reach the shower head. You know something? This getting old aint for weines!!! I'm 78.

Right there with you! Dread doing it! My Hubby suggested to wash my hair in the sink & not the shower---so much better, one less thing to fool with in the shower. Also have a built-in seat I use. And, I just take my time.

A common problem with COPDers is dreading to take a shower because it wears them out. You use about the same amount of energy showering as you do walking briskly. That dread of knowing it will tire you out causes anxiety which only adds to the problem.

Jeeeze! I thought I was the only one!
I just couldn't figure out why I so dreaded taking a shower but it's a mirror of everything I do now- Pre-planning: putting on clothing, going to the toilet, moving to a sitting room- knowing the next time that task is done will require more effort.
Someone should come up with a "People groomer" to pick people up and transport them to a [friendlier] bath.
I'm ashamed to disclose my schedule but wipes help in-between.

I have a a shower seat and handicap bars. If I use or concentrator I’m suckin. moisture from the air. For me tank gives me straight oxygen shower hose works better for showers “gun”
