I use a bunch of gadgets [adaptive equipment] to perform most tasks during my daily routines. Admittedly, I am now guilty of taking them for granted. Of course, if my grandson hides one or it breaks, action stops. Here is my list of equipment used daily:
| - Electric hospital bed - Manual wheelchair with protrusion knobbed hubs - Shower chair - Wash mitt with Velcro - Special deodorant holder / applier - Electric toothbrush - Sock aid | - Shoes with Velcro - Universal cuff [Velcro strap] for utensils - Special burn proof mug - Phone with headset - Track ball mouse - Typing stick [tubing with pencil] |
That's during a typical day. Technology and creativity help me to maintain my
independence. The old saying, "Where there's a will, there's a way." works very well for those of us with challenges / special needs.
