How can I make bathing easily if I have Parkinson's disease?

If you have Parkinson’s disease, here are some tips that can help make bathing and showering easier:Substitute a wash mitt or soft sponge for the usual washcloth. A wash mitt slips on the hand and can be easier to use than a washcloth. A sponge or lightweight cotton dishcloth is lighter and easier to wring than terry cloth washcloths.

A long-handled sponge or bath brush can be used to reach your legs, feet, and back without bending. Use soap-on-a-rope to prevent the slips and falls that can occur in the shower when you bend to retrieve a dropped bar of soap. Hang the soap around your neck or within easy reach over the shower nozzle.

If you can’t find soap-on-a-rope at the drug store, make your own. Cut the leg from an old pair of pantyhose; place a bar of soap in the foot area; securely tie the top thigh area of the hose to the pipe behind the showerhead; then stretch the hose and lather up. Another option is to use shower gel on a bath pouf or sponge instead of a bar soap.

Pour shampoo onto a sponge; then rub the sponge on your hair. The shampoo is less likely to run into your eyes, and there’s no chance of dropping a slippery bottle in the tub or shower.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
