Floor mirror (North side of Elmhurst)
Wooden stand with mirror. Screws to hold the mirror in place are not effective and the mirror floats back. A small object in front (such as a waste can) holds the mirror in front. A handy person could add a bracket on the back of the mirror attaching it to the turn screw area to solve the problem permanently. It is a beautiful piece, just needs someone who is a bit handy to make it perfect again.

Older Touch-Screen Computer (Jefferson Avenue Downers Grove)
HP TouchSmart IQ-505 computer. Would much prefer to give this to someone whose disability would benefit from a touch-screen computer. Note three limitations: 1. Only 4GB memory, so best to run only one application at a time. Not suitable for complex games. 2. Don't have the original wireless keyboard and mouse. 3. Windows 10, and not upgrade-able to Windows 11. Microsoft makes one more year of security updates available. Specifications for similar item => Easy pickup near Hillcrest School.

PleurX Catheter Drain kits (Elmhurst: Rt. 83 & North Ave.)
Listed previously but no takers. These are drain kits for a person who has a PleurX catheter in their lung to drain pleural effusion. My mom's pleural effusion got better and her catheter was removed. Before I open the kits and recycle any parts that I can, I am listing these one more time in the hope that someone can benefit from these.
