@gingerw ..honestly Ginger I am somewhat better dealing with things better on my own. What did affect me was when I had to retrieve things like a glass of water, something to eat, or bathing. I overcame these obstacles by taking measures pro actively. Such as, keeping a pitcher of ice water beside me, making sure I had ready snacks (nuts, granola bars, crackers) within reach, and I outfitted the tub/shower with hand grips and a shower chair ( all rented). I had my family get me zip up sweat shirts and track pants. I organized all this on my own. I had the drug store deliver my medications to my house. There were still obstacles but I persevered. My husband left for work at 6am and returned about 4:30pm so I was alone most of the time. I wasn't allowed to drive and we lived in a somewhat rural spot. I was housebound and thats when I fell in love with Netflix and britbox lol...
