drugstore stuff
Author: Vic
-When I had my stroke I began to realize that I couldn’t go shopping for my personal stuff anymore. Well one more thing to remind me that I was now handicapped! I got very angry at myself for not paying more attention to my body and taking care of me. Well, God helped me to get over it. So I went to my computer and looked up Web drugstores. I finally found one that I liked and set myself up an account . I happen to use drug store.com.
I could order my toothpaste, mouth wash, shampoo, etc. and have it shipped directly to me. I didn't have to wait until someone could take me to the drug store. I had to learn how to shop on the Internet as this is a bit different than going into a store. Doing this gave me a feeling of independence... [a good thing!].
One of the things that I had to come to grips with was shaving. Now, I've always been a blade man. Over the years, I've tried electric shaver's and not care for them. Now that I've had a stroke. I had to re-look at shaving. I couldn't hold a blade in my hand. So I had to have someone shave me. Of course, this took away independence... so I decided to try an electric shaver. Here at the drug store I've found just what I needed. I used my Visa card and ordered it. I must say I am very happy with the way it works.
Another thing that I am using is a electric tooth brush. This helps me to feel more independent also. I couldn't brush my teeth so I needed help there also. Since I couldn't move my hand anymore, the electric toothbrush solved my problem. I found that Crest makes one just uses batteries. It works very well.
