Just tell one of the relatives straight. If he/she crashes it, they can sue you. Then you will have a real deficit, duchess

Come on, this isn't a relative, she's already shared it's someone to do paperwork because she's on disability. Someone mentioned she doesn't like them much, well, it's an agency, you don't have to like them, you simply have to be there to do paperwork annually when they need it done.

There are chairs that will break at 200 lbs. One won't know that unless they break under someone, apparently none of you have weighed over 200lbs and sat in a lightweight chair. :laugh:

A chaise lounge is quite low to the ground... someone quite over weight certainly can't be expected to get up from that low to the ground. I don't know that it would hold 300 lbs. I understand your concern, do I think she'd sue you? I think she won't be able to get out of your house quick enough if she breaks someone. She'll be mortified and horribly embarrassed! Trust me, that would probably be what goes on in her mind.

I really don't think you'll have to worry about getting sued. If I understood correctly she's working and coming to your house to get a signature or do an inspection for housing, something along that way? So she'll be on the clock, if she's injured she'll have insurance from the agency she works for.

I think that is very kind that you want to make her comfortable and are concerned about her. It sounds like you're more concerned about her than the furniture, which is nice to hear. Your post could have gone a whole different direction but you kept it kind.

Someone mentioned a folding chair (which is a great suggestion!)... I don't imagine you have much extra money being on disability. If you purchased one you would want to buy a sturdy one that held up well and those won't be cheap. Is there someone you could borrow a dining table chair from for the appt? I don't know if this is an option but some churches loan out chairs for functions. Call a meeting hall or someplace that uses chairs.

So there you go... beg, borrow or steel, a chair that is. :laugh:

Yea I know it's long.... just trying to help is all...

Good luck with the meeting and finding a safe place for her to sit.
