Hi,
Hope everyone is keeping well.
I’ve been caring for my uncle for the last 3 years, suffers from Parkinson’s and his condition is worsening.
He can’t hear and can’t speak so we communicate in sign language.
I noticed he’s now having difficulty eating due to the increased shaking.
Is anyone able to recommend any cutlery/plates that can make this easier for him?
I was told that red is a preferred colour?
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks
Priya
