Go-To Gadgets for Life with Parkinson’s Disease

[Ally]

This week, I recorded a flash briefing of one of Lori DePorter’s columns about finding gadgets to make life with Parkinson’s easier.  You can listen to it here.

What gadgets, devices, tools and/or apps have you found that help make your life easier? How did you find them? What tool or gadget is missing from the marketplace that you think would make a big difference for you?

I have found Kizik hands free shoes really do work.

I agree about Kizik shoes.  Sketchers also has some that are also hands free.

Thanks for sharing, Larry. 🙂

An old-fashioned, broad-bladed, shoe-horn helps me to get shoes on

The parallel bars that are “L” shaped. The long legs go between your mattresses and the short legs joined together are the handle that not only help a person get in, stay in, or get out of bed, I’ll lean against mine to add stability when dressing, and they can also prevent falls if you are near by when unsteadiness occurs. Happy Holidays!
