Maybe a small native child could bring you tea, and maybe waft you with Ostrich feathers when you become too hot. If it was good enough for the British Raj and all that.
I suppose he could get one of the kids from school to do it in return for special access to the tuck shop, it's what they used to do in the old days
I have a child's trainer cup for when I'm on crutches, works brilliantly and is inexpensive. A little embarrassing using it when you're out but you soon get used to the strange looks.
Would now be a good time to mention that I bought my own wheelchair as it was a right pain to have to keep sending them back to the appropriate hospitals. I still have it. I took it to Summer Camp.
Last time as I got better I traded my elbow crutches in for a walking stick - I still have that because I never got around to handing it back.
You want to try the French ones made of GRP...the elbow bit doesn't form a circle around your arm, more of a support type affair and they flex like anything. At first they just seem the stupidest idea ever, but in that French engineering way, they kind of make sense when you start to use the flex as a spring. Not wrapping around your arm though is an unforgivable design flaw...thus they form the full circle of French engineering, weird and wonderful, then wilfully negligent!
Used one of those when I smashed my car up on the motorway. Ended up with a smashed jaw, was allowed a cup of tea some time after the operation to plate my jaw, because of the massive bruising to my arms and sides I couldn't lift the cup high enough so bright idea, turn it around so the nozzle was at the bottom and didn't need to lift it so high to drink, it worked, that is until I felt a wet warm feeling in my lap. Hard to explain to the nurse that the tea came out of the air hole and not from me. Embarrassing or what
