[tri-med] Re: tess' chair

I think Ian said it was called "Comet". It is very compact (he just takes 
the handle extensions off and it fits in the back of his car without 
folding up). It has a slight recline facility as well as sit up straight. 
It has head support and torso support (which is a bit too high by the way, 
even though she was measured up). It has no front tray like Kammie's, which 
I would have like to have, but it does allow us to push her right up to the 
table, so she can be with the family at meal times, instead of in her high 
chair, and slightly out of the group, or sitting in her stroller as she 
does at our place. I'll get more specific details after we come back from 
hols. Or if Ian happens to read your mail, he may like to chime in.  Frank 
has also taken her photo with his digital camera, and I'll get him to put 
one on the computer later.
