Occupational Therapist, ca. 1994, handed me a "sock aid"
that was paid by my insurance at the time.

You place a sock over the "sock aid" and pull both on a
foot with an attacked cord....there's no need to bend or
cross the legs.

I just found Easierliving on the internet selling them for $12.50

Another company selling them for $10.95 for panty hose, $11.95 and $13.95
