My mom, diagnosed in Nov of 2010, is now having difficulty with both legs and pivoting her to the toilet is getting difficult. How have all of you handled this transition? What are some tricks to help her ? Thanks,
Hi,
I can no longer walk & my husband puts in a Hoyer sling with a commode opening & wheels me to the toilet. It works really well for us as I can only stand for about 30 seconds. With a Hoyer they even have mesh slings so you can use a bath transfer bench in the shower.
Hope this helps.
