Do you use technology to fight Parkinson’s?

[AK Jones]

use mechanical “picker uppers”* by RMS,have one to two in every room of house. I use weighted eating tools. also i have purchased a U-Step walker, a motorized  wheel chair with vehicle ramp; magnifying glass with light. looking for a remote television sound transmitter (not ear plugs or head phoneless ), For relaxation I downloaded free Orange Blossom tape.

I use grabbers, a shower bench, a rollator, a cane, a crescent ‘knife’ to cut meat.
I am starting to use vocal ‘typing’, have an enlarged bright keyboard and when the time comes, I have a touch PC…the monitor will allow me to use my finger to scroll, x out a page, etc.
My bed consists of a bunkie board and mattress resting on the bottom steel shelves of
two small scaffolds. The extra metal ‘arms’ on the sides are good for pulling myself out of bed, etc.

LOL, And how is that working for you?

[Suzanne Haidri]

Very well, thank you! It’s very handy to keep track.

[Suzanne Haidri]

It keeps track of the size, color, type (hard vs soft scale), and other things.

Bom dia.

Fui diagnisticado com doença de parkinsson há 8 anos. Tenho 71 anos.

Nesta fase da doença, ainda não necessito de qualquer apoio.Vivo sózinho, cozinho, alimento-me,faço higiene pessoal, conduzuo,faço pequena agricultura, engomo a roupa, limpo casa.A minha maior dificuldade é o sono.Não tomo nada para dormir.No entanto já cheguei á conclusão que a última refeição, deve ser rica em fruta e legumes e nada de acucar.Embora goste de acucar depois das 12/13 horas evito.
