I am an MS patient with very poor walking ability and difficulty in
raising myself after being seated. I need to buy an
adaptor which raises the height of the toilet bowl. I have seen these
in other homes, but where can I buy one?

Do you prefer to have a supplier in your state or from one that ships
anywhere in the US?  What state do you reside in?

I need a supplier who ships internationally and preferably by the
cheapest carrier! I live in Brazil.

Good afternoon jimen and thank you for your question.

I have located a manufacturer known worldwide that has several models
of raised toilet seat and after viewing them, I located one that I
think would meet your physical needs, knowing some of the problems
associated with MS.
