[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My elderly parent has recently transitioned from Relapsing-Remitting MS into Secondary-Progressive. Basically, her condition is deteriorating and is going to continue. [b]She is losing control of her body.[/b] All of my life, my mom was an adventurer, a traveller, and always on the go. This week, she had to relinquish her Driver's License. It has been devastating. [b]We try to make sure someone is always with her but the reality is, it's not always possible[/b]. I am trying to find ways to keep her feeling connected and intellectually engaged. I've been considering a tablet and the Amazon Echo but she is overwhelmed by technology. Maybe worth a shot though. Does anyone in a similar situation have any advice or a list of "Must Haves" to make her life easier/more comfortable? [/quote] It's time to hire a home health aide/ CNA who can be with her when family can't be.[/quote]
