Anyone ever put in an aftermarket grab handle for the driver side to help get in and out. I have a 2011 avalanche and my wife is short and has trouble getting in. Thanks in advance.
 
Tie some paracord and make loop to existing - Maybe braid it like the kids

Is there an existing?
 
No grab handle on drivers side...

Strengthen the interior door handle and have her use that.
 
You should consider just changing the technique of entry, it is easy to roll down the window while still on the ground and then grab the lower window sill to pull up, that way you don't have to worry about pulling off a door handle or strap etc. On the driver side you can always grab the steering wheel and use that to climb in as well. I have used one of these methods since a 1980 Corvette I owned and it had weak designed door straps. I have used the window sill grab method for me and my whole family over the 32 years of Suburban and AV ownership and have never had a damaged door or steering wheel, we are also very heavy people and would put any part to the test....:)
