Invention

This isn't really my story, it's a request. I wish someone out there would invent a device that could be worn on the waist like a belt, and it would coil and uncoil your oxygen tube so that when you're walking with your arms full of laundry you don't trip over the tubing or rip your nose off because it gets stuck on something!! I'm so grateful that I can still do my own laundry, but something like this would help immensely! :)
