Marvin, I hooked up two mountain-climbers" ropes with knots every 10 inches onto "D-handles" (sort of like a hitching post handle to tie up a horse) nearby the foot of my bed, one on each side. I flip the ropes up onto my bed so I can grasp them even when my strength is failing, and pull myself around. The ropes are neon green like the color of a deep sea fish... Usually, people glance at my bedroom and wonder if i'm into something "kinky"--well, that's another story..... I tease them about it and keep them guessing and finally tell them the ropes are for rolling around in bed.
