Raising a toilet

Posted by Jim on December 28, 2001 at 10:23:23:
My dad can no longer comfortably bend to reach a toilet that stands about 16 inches high. I would like to raise the toilet on a simple wooden platform to facilitate use. The existing closet flange is glued to the pipe and is set in a concrete floor. If I attach a new flange to the raised wood floor (4 inches above the existing floor), how can I connect this to the existing line? Thanks for your help.
