Another simple one for care givers out there. Yuko’s mom has to take medicine but can’t see very well.
The more she can do on her own though, the better she feels and the better off we all are. We used to place a couple of tablets in her hand so she could take them, but by the time they got to her mouth usually one had rolled off her hand and fallen to the floor.
We finally solved this by putting a small dish on the table. She can see the dish and feel around to pick up the tablets, which she will always do one at a time with her thumb and forefinger, which means they make it to her mouth.
Problem solved.
