From the host of KITCHEN INDEPENDENCE, David doc Robertson.

Everybody knows someone who can benefit from this handbook.

What hasn't this man done, living alone with a spinal cord injury that confined him to a wheelchair? He raised a family; has two degrees; taught high school and college writing; coached high school basketball; contributed regularly to The Los Angeles Times; produced a televised cooking show in the Coachella Valley; and is currently embarking on a career in entertainment. This handbook will focus on the following topics and more:

1. Wheelchair
2. The Hand Splint
3. Kitchen

4. Laundry
5. Bedroom.
A. The Balkin Frame
B. The Transfer
C. Dressing
D. Shoes
E. Catheter
F. Bowel program - suppository inserter
6. Bathroom
7. Transportation - vocational rehabilitation
8. Cleaning the house

How did he adapt to this kind of life? It wasn't easy, but after nearly nine years of depending on attendants and family, he became independent. How he did it is all in here.
