How can I put on socks and stockings if I have arthritis?

If you have limited reaching ability; pain in your hips, knees, back; or if the act of stretching footwear to go over your foot is painful, try putting your socks or stockings on with an easy-to-use sock or stocking aid. This device works a little like a shoe horn: slip your sock over the flexible, terrycloth-covered base, and it spreads the sock open, making a generous opening for your foot to enter. Slip your foot into the opening, grasp the two attached straps and gently pull the sock or stocking over your foot.

You can also sprinkle cornstarch into your nylon stockings or onto the bottom of your feet and heels to make it easier to pull stockings on.

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.
