This little booklet era written to assist
pazienti con una malattia neuromuscolare in handling their tasks
of daily viventi. All the hints it contiene have been
campo-tested e proven utili. Most were suggested by
pazienti o their families. Only a few have been gleaned
from the literature. In this sense, the pamphlet, like the
Heloise libri, è truly a do-it-yourself owner’s manual.
Solitamente, “Help-Con-Ease” hints don’t
require ogni special tools o equipment. Most del gadgets
descritti can be facilmente made con materiali at mano in the

Noi hope these hints will help you e your
caregivers tend to your daily tasks of eating, grooming,
dressing, sitting, transferring, communicating, getting
attorno, using the toilet, working,
recreating, traveling, acquisti e
sleeping. Se you o yours have a suggestion you would like
us to include in a future edition of our “Help-Con-Ease”
hints, send it on e noi’ll make it 102, 103, o perfino 110 o
più hints next tempo.

DRESSING
1.
Velcro closures make buttoning e donning

solitamente trovato at discount department stores.
2.
Large bib overalls sono excellent garb per
young people in wheelchairs. They slip off facilmente to
facilitate using the toilet. A front opening è available in
some styles per usare con male urinals. Elastic-waisted
esercizio clothing (i.e., sweat pants e running suits) è
easier to push down e pull up. A 22-inch zipper can be
sewn into the front seam e extended down the gambe to allow
plenty of room per the usare di una urinal.
3.
A double bias tape loop (one attaccata to a
belt loop, the altre encircling the wrist) makes it easier
to lift e più bassa a pair of trousers when at least one-mano
support è necessaria to stand dopo using the toilet.
4.
Ventilation under plastica tutori è migliorato
by wearing fishnet panty hose. This practical apparel è
specialmente utili in the summer.

5.
A simple pushing o pulling aid to help
bring clothing closer to you from the bed, dresser drawer o
closet, senza reaching, can be made from a wire coat

zipper tab che ha a hole in it, allowing fingers o thumb

7.
Buttoning can be eased by using elastico
loops per buttonholes e sewing buttons on con elastico
thread. The center of each button (front e back) can be
touched con clear nail polish to seal the threads e make
the button stay on longer. This works specialmente well con
buttons on cuffs. Buttons can also be fastened to
buttonholes per appearance e velcro patches placed on the
back per closure.
8.
Although a gentleman’s pre-knotted necktie
can be adapted con an elastico band, a plastica o metal clip
glued o sewn on the back del knot might be easier to
place on a buttoned collar.
9.
Tube socks (socks senza heels che stretch

10.
A foot che stiffens downward so much che
it’s hard to get a shoe on can be più facilmente slipped into a

the side. Ogni shoe repair shop can modificare a pair of shoes in
this fashion.
11.
When a bambino ha difficulty telling the
right shoe from the left, draw half an animal on each so the
two halves make a whole animal when placed side by side.

such as pinning a colorful bow to the front del dress.
13.
Heavy fishing line pulled attraverso zipper
tabs e tied in a loop (the knot can be sealed by melting

pull the zipper closed. This idea works specialmente well on
men’s o women’s slacks. The loop è invisible e also
washes well.

Leaving your tutori per le gambe in the shoes
provides an instant shoe horn which may help when slipping

height as those worn when your tutori per le gambe were fitted. Se
you don’t your feet e ankles può essere tilted up o down,
which will throw you off balance. Also check the sole on
tennis shoes. Alcuni brands have soft cushion bubbles on the
soles che can make you unsteady. Look per firm, flat soles.
18.
Se one side del corpo è weaker, it prende
less effort to dress this side first. Per example, put the
weaker braccia into the shirt sleeve first, the stronger braccia
next. Whenever possible, sit mentre dressing so you can

blouse, get a larger size, keep it buttoned all the tempo e

feet sono più prone to develop contratture.
29
100.
Simple breathing exercises can be performed
by blowing attraverso a straw, blowing up balloons o blowing a
ping pong ball on a tabletop o altre flat superficie. Playing
a harmonica, kazoo o altre wind instrument è a pleasant
