Cushions

"The Butcher Block"

 … so named by hospital staff.

An aid designed for a paraplegic, 

to support a leg that is in a cast, 

so that he/she can continue to use his/her own wheelchair, 

while the leg heals from a break.

The block sits on the footrest, kept in place with velcro.

The block can be easily removed from the footrest 

and then put back in place when needed,

thus allowing for transfer to vehicle, toilet, or bed.

For more photos and measurements of the block

Lobster design and stencil work 

by Ian Paul MacAdam

 Lobster pillows are 18" x 18"

and have zippers.
The fabric is a sturdy medium weight 
washable poly-cotton.

 Some have plain piping,

Some have plain piping,

 and some have coloured piping,

 A red lobster ready to eat.

 Sometimes a blue lobster is seen in nature…

… in different shades.

 Often a brown lobster is seen in the water.

  A green lobster stencilled on burlap….

 … or an orange lobster, 

with a fringed finish.

 Bright orange with green...

 And what has this one been taking?

Protective Ankle Support

Protective Ankle Boot 

With Wedge 

Designed to take pressure off a sore on the ankle, 

to allow it to heal.

Made from layers of 3/4" foam, 

a sturdy knit fabric, velcro tapes.

A hole and graduated area around the hole 

allows the ankle to rest in place 

without any pressure on it or the surrounding area.  

 The outside view, with the velcro straps.

 View from the knee end.  

The heel fits into the left side of the sunken area.

The velcro straps are held back in place - 

each has a tab of velcro to keep it held down, while one fits the boot.

 The heel is placed in the depression - 

as seen in the first photo.

 The boot closed - 

the velcro allows adjustment for snugness 

around each area of the leg and ankle.

 The ankle bone seen through the opening - 

allowing fingers to monitor 

contact with the boot surface.

 A wedge made from foam, with a velcro strip added…

...to place alongside the boot.  

The position of the wedge is adjustable

 as the velcro goes right around the boot.

 The wedge stops the leg from rotating outward 

 thus keeping pressure off the ankle area.
