New Discovery

[bazooka111]

As crazy as this may sound, I have found something that really is working for my Mom (Marlene). She is no longer able to be precise in pushing the button to get my attention.

Over the last couple of years, we have used successfully a call button that is connected to a watch — brilliant! Most recent weeks, she has struggled in using her thumb or finger to activate the signal —- immediately I was in a panic. I have tried a couple of things, still no success. 🤨

Until now!!! If a dog can use his snout or paw to push a bell trainer, so can MOM!! And it works!!!! The entire surface activates with the softest pressure!! As you can see I have it attached with the old standby “duct tape” to the bed rail and she can get my attention in an instant!! I now will order another for her bedside table!

Hope this offers some help to my friends here!

Slivers of joy …
