Dear Gary,

My wife Robin and I use a tub seat with adjustable legs.  We are both CP,
but we find this seat very helpful.  It has a back support bar with a
rubber tube that encases the top bar of the back support.  Have grab bars
installed in you tub/shower stall at whatever angle you need them placed.
 The shower seat which can fit into a bathtub can be sold by any surgical
supply outlet. Contact one and inquire into the availability of a seat
that will fit into your tub.   Hope this is helpful.

Robin and Bill
