 Strongarm Mobility

STRONGARM™ Mobility produces a next generation walking device based on a unique one-piece handle featuring an integral forearm brace. The patented STRONGARM™ design shifts loads from the wrist to the forearm, providing optimum SUPPORT, STABILITY, and CONTROL. The cushioned cradle braces the forearm on three sides to stabilize the wrist, making the entire device feel like a solid extension of the user's arm.

HELPFUL DATA BASE PROGRAMS

Maximizer 5.0

I have come across a great data base program to keep all your RSD address contacts in.  This program is called Maximizer 5.0, it is the best and most powerful program that I have used to keep track of all my RSD contacts. I have found it to be a very useful tool in setting up different data base fields (i.e., tracking contacts by cities,states,zip codes, countries, age, where people have there RSD, etc...). You can set up the data base fields anyway that you would like. This program also prints out your labels for all your mailings, even if you just want to print out just one state or all 50 states at once. This program will save you time.
