For ladies only: BRA SOLUTION!
Quote from Cheryl Hancock on July 27, 2022, 6:43 pmI am 15 months post stroke and have tried SOmany different bras, hoping to find one that I can put on and take off independently with one arm ( my poor husband was as frustrated as me!). I finally saw one mentioned on a stroke site that works like a charm. No snaps, zippers, etc. very stretchy material that one can actually STEP into and out of. And comfortable, too (no underwires).very reasonably priced on @Amazon 3 for $29.99. I believe they are also carried by Walmart. The GENIE BRA.

Quote from Sara Riggs on July 29, 2022, 3:08 pmAlso post stroke, and I seriously hate the “uni-boob” of sports bras! My fav trick:
Use a clothespin. Put bra around your waist. Clip the eye side to underwear or pants. Right in front. Then bring hook side around and hook without removing clothespin. Once hooked, take off clothespin, turn it around so hook is in back. Arms thru holes and pull up. Put the girls away and off you go! ❤️
