I have arthritis in my knees. For this reason, it is really difficult for me to stand for long periods of time. This makes standing in lines excruciating. There were times when I almost sat on the floor, just so that I could get off of my feet! I seriously didn’t know what I was going to do.
About a month ago, my son told me about a product he has seen on a commercial that he though would be perfect for me, the As Seen on TV Pocket Chair. Pocket chair?! I refused to believe that there was such thing as a chair that would not only fit in my pocket, but also support me (I weigh 225lbs, I’m not a tiny lady!).
Well, he could see I was resisting, so he dropped it. The next week, we were in line to buy tickets for a baseball game. He could tell I was starting to ache. I began pacing, as I do to relieve pain. All of a sudden, he pulls a little red baggie out of his pocket, grins, and says, “Hey, Ma, this should help.”. Now, I’m wondering how a hankie is supposed to help me knees. Well, he unfolds the thing and voila, there’s a little seat for me to sit on. I try not to get excited, since I am sure that it will collapse under my weight, causing a huge scene. My son assures me that it holds up to 250lbs. At this point I am willing to try anything! So, I sit.
Wow! I was surprised. The Pocket Chair did hold me quite well and felt very sturdy. I could see some other people in line were awfully jealous! My son had gotten them in a buy one get one free offer, so he sat down with me. I now carry mine with me everywhere I know I might be standing for a while. People ask me where I got my Pocket Chair all the time!
I also now use it when camping. I cannot sit cross-legged on the ground like I used to, and it generally hurts to sit on the ground. Now, I just bring the Pocket Chair with me and I don’t have to worry about any leg pain.
Now you can get two for the price of one and get two free carrying cases!
