Kinky Longstocking

gilofa2000

May I introduce: The Gilofa 2000, support and travel stockings. Well, I hope they
work their magic on me, because my last long distance flight caused some serious
leg swelling. It was ridiculous! It seemed I had lost my ankles, because it was
just my feet merging into my (doubled in size) calves. I have pictures, but I spare
you this. Even my sister (who is a nurse and has seen a lot) said: "That doesn't
look too good". Luckily, my legs were (almost) back to normal the next day.
And though it gives you a good hint of what life at the age of 90 or so must be
like, I would gladly pass on another elephantitis-experience.
