./posts/all/1731467084-117.txt:Reply #19621148 I heard your conversation with your sister. I usually try to always be on the side of the child because I know how hard it is to care for the elderly, but there is just no excuse for how your sister let your mother deteriorate and develop such a rash. The minute she started to get red, your sister should have contacted the doctor to get an antibiotic cream or something. That rash is just so huge. Even my cousin who has been paralyzed since 2005 didn’t develop such a large rash. My grandmother had some mobility issues too, but we made sure to bathe her at least once a week or as needed. When I clean somebody, I always make sure to leave them as clean as I would want to be. Now I realize some people with mobility issues can be hard to move. My cousin is tiny at only 4ft11, but it’s still dead weight so she felt super heavy when I would carry her because it’s dead weight. My grandmother also a small woman. There is still so much that can be done. Does your mother have a shower bench? If not, she should get one. Even if you have a bathtub, you can still place one leg outside of the tub and one in. I always used a shower bench with my grandmother. My grandfather also had one that was more like a chair, but I like the bench better because you can move them straight from the wheelchair to the bench as the bench is longer. These chairs and benches are cheap and sometimes even free if the insurance pays. Also, they have disability toilets that are taller toilets. I have one in my home. A disability toilet with a bidet attachment can really be so great too. If your sister can’t get her in the tub then she should ask for help. Oftentimes it takes two people to help bathe the elderly/disabled person.
