Now I only wear t-shirts, pull on shoes (),after sticking the mascara brush in my eye this morning, am I going to have to let Clay put my makeup πŸ’„ on me. I will look like a successful clown 🀑. My granddaughter has been able to apply my makeup for years. I looked gorgeous and πŸ˜ƒ smiled. Well maybe it πŸ€” was a little overdone but we were very pleased. It looked great on me so there! Many Blessings and Love throughout your life, JudyTx 🌹

There are a few companies marketing clothing designed for PD, including one for mens shirts that replaces traditional buttons with magnetic ones. Personally, this remains one of the hardest things with my mother - looking good and feeling confident keeps her wanting to be social and go outside. I don't have to tell you how quickly one's capabilities slide once you stop using them... I wish the clothes at these companies was better designed, better fabrics and more flattering. I ended up making a lot of clothes or altering existing ones. I'll put a business out soon! You can also certainly take your favorite clothes to a tailor or dry cleaner. If you describe the issues to them, they should have suggestions and be able to alter them for you!
