On my boat, I keep a little two step stool lashed to the lifelines for this purpose. It was~$10 @ wally world. It has wide steps, is very sturdy,and has held up to salt spray, sun, and storms for three years. I would think it would hold up pretty good just tossing it in the bed and letting it ride until you need it.
This is the one. Mine is white(sun):

Rather than spend a lot of money lowering your truck, (and probably lowering it's resale value) I would go to the store and get a folding two-step stool. This was a good suggestion by bander - I thought I would remind you that they make step stools that fold up flat and would fit behind your seat very easily. I commend you for wanting to help your Grandmother!

RE: Flame me if ya want....I don't care.
here's another idea. its a slide/fold away RV step. it would require some fitting, but it would sure be nice.

RE: Flame me if ya want....I don't care.
I don't remember the name but they make a step that folds down from under the truck when the door is opened. I know they installed some on the show Trucks one time and I've seen them advertised in some of the truck mags. From what I could tell, they drop down about 8-10 inches or so when either door is opened then fold back up under the cab when closed. I always thought they'd get ragged out in the mud but since you said you don't off road they should hold up pretty good. Jeff.
