Have just been informed that there is such a thing as a pill cutter which is going to make my life a whole lot easier not to mention keeping my fingers intact.
I know we can all go visiting the disablity shop and have a browse around,but sorry folks...they aren`t` the most appealing of places [not in the uk anyway] brown paint and gloomy windows.My symptoms get worse just walking by.In my opinion you go there to buy something specific and then scurry out again.Denial? Of course it is...that`s how I survive....lol Seriously...if any of you are like me you see something in a catalogue which can sing,dance,turn cartwheels,transform you into Superwoman/ Superman/ SuperTed/Noddy...blah blah blah...And then when it arrives...you attack the parcel tape like a storm trooper cos it`s set like cement...anxiously open a box the size of a television,disappear under the polystyrene blobs,emerge spitting out more blobs...and lo and behold...grasped in your mitt...is the teeny tiniest most useless looking object and not at all like the huge,robust "life transforming wondertool" that you were getting all excited about a few days earlier....well actually several months earlier cos they sold like hot cakes,had to be re-ordered...restocked..re packed...etc etc... And the first time you try these Amazing Nose Hair Clippers [well every catalogue has them don`t they?] they make a noise like a pneumatic drill,and devour your nostrils in much the same manner. On your return from the outpatients wing of the hospital having been treated for shock..you toss the "said" gadget in the bin and vow never to be swayed again.....until the next time. So...now my little tale is complete...how about we get the info straight from the folk who have tried and tested these gadgets. YOU!!! Can you all add just one object/gadget that has made your life with PD easier....like a homing device that helps you connect the butterknife with the bread. Have fun. x |
