Range of motion is limited. Especially when trying to put shoes on etc. Does anyone have any suggestions or use certain devices that prove to be helpful?

Thank y’allπŸ₯°

Thank you very much. I’ve seen the same commercials. I do own a pair of Michael Kors that I just slip on. Guess I will try the sketchers if they have them in all black that can go with anything. Thank you for your suggestion.πŸ₯°

Same. No more tying. Some shoes have ties as well as a side zip for easier on/off. The ties just adjust the tightness. I'm considering trying some of the Skechers slip ins that dont need any bending at all. I've seen recent ads for them where the heel snaps snug after you put your feet in. My 83 yr old dad re entry purchased some due to Parkinsonism difficulties. He loves them. They're all he wears now. 😚

Yes ma’am. Thank you@Khristy. I’ve been considering that. I have shoes that I love and they have to be tied or buckled. πŸ™ƒ
