Any suggestions on how to approach a friend who is 4'9" tall and younger than I am; she does not need grab bars. We have regular meetings in at her house - she's the pres. of the organization. I need grab bars in the bathroom. She does not need grab bars. Her home is some 30 minutes from my home; simply "waiting" until I get home is not an option. Plus her home was built with very low toilets. They are no more than 12 inches, and possibly only 10 inches from the floor. There is no need for her to change toilets, but I'd much like the addition of a grab bar.

Can you offer your house for meetings? Sometimes it is hard to find the help you need, don't be embarassed by it. The other option may be Zoom so you can be part of the meeting without being physically present. Good Luck.
