And I mean one hand! Fell over yesterday and did a great job of breaking and displacing bone in my wrist. It has been realigned and plastered but needs to be held high in a sling so is not usable.(fortunately left hand and I am right handed). Husband has dementia- doesn’t need physical care but I do need to keep him to a timetable (food, pills etc) and cook, clean etc.
We don’t need anyone coming in but if anyone has any tips for coping with one hand. So far I have been carrying a shoulder bag about with things I need, I wedged my hot water bottle in the sink with a washing up bowl to fill it, holding stuff with my knees and sitting to do up my trousers. Husband tries to help but gets confused or forgets what he’s doing. Any more ideas on how to manage.
