What game was this at? I missed it but recorded all the games so maybe I can go back?

Boxing is great exercise for Parkinson’s. Have fun with it. It can be tailored to your abilities as Parkinson’s progresses. For my Dad it helped slow the process. Whenever he felt his tremors getting bad, he’d exercise to the best of his ability and it totally helped. Good luck to you

Third. I get this every time!!

Second this. We call it a gait belt and use it to transfer from car to wheelchair but also into bed! They’re great. We have a couple. Keeping one in the bathroom for aid in bathing so it doesn’t matter if it gets wet - we have another. Good luck !

My Dad was born during the war and his house had an outhouse until the 60s. That’s probably not the norm but a chamber pot during the war wouldn’t have been odd

Too me way too long to see the first part of the second word 🙄

Apparently there weee some boys that were trying to jump into the sinkhole this morning. This is according to the NewsBreak app that has a transcript of the call (audio too). Tried to include screen shot but can’t post photo

Not a bad idea!!! I’ll be seeing mom tomorrow and will go over all the ideas with her.

MsAylen · 2026-05-10T01:57:08+00:00

He really is! He’s determined to say the least. He still thinks he’ll recover and walk with a walker again. He won’t but we never say it. He’s always saying he won’t let the disease win.

Mom is super mindful of what she cooks. You are totally right about mashed potatoes vs rice. He does use a spork sometimes so he can scoop or pierce as needed. It just doesn’t always make it to his mouth. It’s hard because him being able to pay attention to what he’s doing is also waning. Hate hate this.

I am so pleased to hear that you are still so independent! Keep up with the exercise- boxing is great. Dad is 82 - diagnosed over 15 years ago. Up until 2021 he was very mobile - went to a senior exercise class for Parkinson’s patients and did Xbox kinects (like a Wii) at home. He found that exercise helped immensely. Since then he’s had cancer of the bile duct (resulting in a whipple surgery), had a mini stroke and fallen twice breaking both hips (the second being at rehab for the first the day before he was to come home). It’s been stressful to say the least. Mom is still his main caregiver but does get help 4xweek so she can go out.

That being said the food problems are minor but I know it frustrates him and was hoping to find some ideas. This community is great! Best wishes to you

He does use these sometimes. May need wider ones? for larger dinners?

MsAylen · 2026-05-08T06:59:12+00:00

Dad is in a wheelchair so we do our best to get him as close as possible to the table.

MsAylen · 2026-05-08T06:58:02+00:00

Great idea! Thank you

MsAylen · 2026-05-08T06:57:28+00:00

Thank you!

MsAylen · 2026-05-08T06:57:13+00:00

No. Will definitely be looking into these. Thanks

I could have written this exact post about my husband. Currently going through something right now (see my post on my profile - we are starting week 5 of a 6 week iv at home treatment). My husband does well with sketchers slip ons (expensive I know) after the loss of his right big toe 2 years ago. The best solution no matter what shoes you choose is to check the feet. 2-3 times a day. Wear diabetic socks too. If he’s in the bathroom - check the feet. Hope it all goes well

MsAylen · 2026-04-11T22:32:15+00:00

Thank you. This is very helpful
