Getting old has it's benefits, but it can certainly also be a challenge, if anyone knows this, it's my grandfather. Getting into his mid 80's, he started experiencing problems with his back. I figured i would give him a swivel cushion. This cushion consists of two layers of slippery fabric, that when connected on the middle by an axis, slides and swivels freely on one another.
