Question for creative minds please

Hi all. I have motor neurone disease and am slowly losing the use of my arms. I enjoy a pint at home and I can drink 99% of things with a straw.

The issue is when I'm having a Guinness. I can't lift it with my arms anymore and because you drink through the head it's not possible with a straw.

I was wondering if one of you guys had any ideas on something to lift a glass and tilt it? Look I'm not looking for a terminators robot arm and probably won't live long enough to invest substantial funds into it but I just want to enjoy a pint.

Thanks

Best of luck with your thirst and search for a solution. I can't offer any solution but maybe the guys in Home› Topics› Science, Health & Environment› Engineering would find the challenge interesting?

There was also a guntering chat in the farming section that would have a creative and able population that may be able to advise, or even help with a bit of tinkering.

And I'm sure they would all enjoy a bit of testing..

There's a type of kettle-tilting device that could be adapted, it would have to be placed on a higher surface, though, if you don't want to have to bring your head down. This is one of them.
