It is triple triumph for a stroke survivor: better hand function, better endurance, and the pleasure of contributing to a partnership. I really relate to this post.Rebecca Duttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004104301521792927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520456258844139120.post-52032182660850968962011-10-27T03:00:02.630-04:002011-10-27T03:00:02.630-04:00I have never done my husband's wash.

I wish I had been nicer about the laundry years ago when I had the chance. <br />Grace, you are a nice lady.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11714725782520722613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520456258844139120.post-48530344672703773482011-10-26T14:24:11.709-04:002011-10-26T14:24:11.709-04:00Grace-You are making me look bad!

I have a hard time with all open-fronted items because the side I put on the hangar first slides off before I can get the second side on.<br /><br />Fortunately, our house is one-story. I carry the laundry baskets back and forth on my wheelchair. Using both hands to push the chair is good therapy.Marcelle Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677437160199036164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2520456258844139120.post-43255004441841344432011-10-26T08:38:59.028-04:002011-10-26T08:38:59.028-04:00Wow...

Just this morning, my husband came to me and asked if he should put away two pairs of my jeans, apologizing for coming across as critical because I had not put them away.<br /><br />The last time I did laundry, it was a struggle to do one-handed; it involved dropping my clothes in the stairwell to a basket on the first floor. I dragged the basket to move it, so I'm thinking of getting a laundry cart for each floor; I can't get that upstairs, though.barbpolannoreply@blogger.com
