My friend Bill fell down the stairs and sustained some injuries that lead to months of recovery. He is a successful inventor and product developer with several succes
ses. Every month I see Bill at a meeting of the Association of Idaho Inventors where ideas are shared and new products are birthed.
Over the course of a year I’d developed the Over the Chair Cane Holder, but if you don’t use a cane there is little reason to be interested in such things. However Bill showed up with a cane and reported that his injuries would require months of using a cane. So I presented an Over the Chair Cane Holder to Bill and encouraged him to find it useful in keeping his cane off of the floor. A month went by and I saw Bill again proudly using the Over the Chair Cane Holder with his cane. His comment to me: “what a useful item to keep your cane off of the floor.”
Folks with canes know when something works. I’ve showed the Over the Chair Cane Holder to many people and almost always get the comment “how do I get one of those?” If you have a friend or family member with a cane it is time they enjoyed keeping their cane off of the floor too.
