Caregiving Tips on my other Blog

I've started another blog (in February 2023) about caregiving tips, based on my recent years of taking care of my mother. Some of the topics I have covered or plan to cover include:

  • latches on various things
  • adapting the activities to suit the abilities (e.g., jigsaw puzzles)
  • suitable shoes
  • ADA compliant house for "aging in place"
  • medications and supplements
  • jobbing out some of the tasks
  • information resources
  • drivers license and state ID card
  • weaning them off their credit cards, then cash
  • getting all the legal documents done ASAP: PoA, etc. 
  • bedtime stories
  • warmed-up pajamas
  • fidget blankets
  • light therapy
  • motion sensors
Note: I had imported some of these posts here to this site to see if that would solve the problem of Facebook not wanting to share my blog, but it didn't help. So, please go back to the other site to see caregiving tips:
