glass table. reminds of the coffee table that was round glass in living room. I was doing taxes for elderly at senior center, my way of giving back and i came home found the glass top on the floor and the metal holding that was the support between the middle/top glass sections broke right off. my wife fell had fallen through it. I felt at the time she was strong enough for me to leave her. i would get her lunch all prepared etc. and she was walking with support and balance pretty good.

After that accident i told them i could no longer leave for long periods of time. I did it for five years at the senior center and also a retirement home. However, it was time again to direct my full attention back to my home. We were very lucky, the glass never broke, she said she didn't hurt herself. Then again one problem is she has a very high tolerance of pain and hardly ever shares if in pain, to a fault.
