TEDS

She struggles to pull on the stocking. We call them TED stockings although there are different types. Those elastic stocks that seem too tight. They are supposed to be tight. Stockings to hold back the floods of fluid that collect in the legs. Most are white although black and neutral colour exist. Back to the struggle. He flops his leg on the bed, waiting for the daily battle. He knows which ones have the knack. They use the slippery foot sock to help the process. If that can’t be found or they sent it to the wash a plastic shopping bag does the trick. Best to do it straight after the shower before the legs have a chance to blow up. Then off he goes with his white stockings under his shorts. He prefers the black ones. They look like long socks.
