Title: Oww, my butt!
Post by: Big E on September 01, 2012, 07:47:23 PM

My butt hurts after I've been sitting in the dialysis chair for awhile. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good padded seat cushion that would fit a dialysis recliner?

My poor bony ass will appreciate any help.

I went to JoAnn's Fabrics and bought a piece of foam the whole length of the chair.  Pick any thickness you want.  Mine is a good inch and a half if not two.  Then I got enough fleece to cover the whole thing.  I got the big safety pins and covered it with this pretty bright fleece and just pin it on so I can also unpin it and wash the fleece.

Thanks for the suggestion, Rerun.  It sounds like a better bargain than a lot of the expensive seat cushions I've been checking out online.
