As one of my mom’s caregivers, I wanted to create a list of the ALS caregiving products, mobility aids, respiratory equipment, comfort items, and daily living tools that have genuinely helped her. These recommendations come from her physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, social workers, doctors, and our own experience caring for her at home. We have tried many products that did not work for her, so I am only including items she has actually used and found helpful. ALS is a progressive disease, and a person’s needs can change over time, so not every item will be appropriate for every stage or every patient. However, everything included on this list made a meaningful difference for my mom at some point in her ALS journey. Sending lots of love to all persons with ALS and caregivers of people with ALS. I am hopeful that there will be a cure one day. ***As with anything on Benable, I earn a very small royalty from purchases made here, but I wouldn't recommend anything I haven't bought for my own mom. This platform just seemed like a great method for sharing recommendations! Any money I earn here goes right back into supporting my mom***
I got Covid in December of 2020 while teaching high school. I was not able to return for spring semester. In fact, I was in a wheelchair with a whole host of health issues until late summer of 2021. I was finally able to get around without a wheelchair eventually, but my life has never been the same. Four and a half years later, despite going to a Long Covid Clinic and seeing a multitude of doctors, I still don't have any real answers or treatments. I am better, but I am pretty sure I will always have a chronic illness that prevents me from living the same kind of life I did prior to Covid. This list is just going to consist of things that I have found helpful in this Long Covid Journey. I am in no way a medical professional, and I'm finding that with Long Covid, and probably other post-viral illnesses, something that works for one person may not work for another! But I am here to share what has given me at least a little bit of my life back or made things easier for me.
Each of these items make up my daily routine that keeps my engine running and my health in top top shape. This girls bloodwork says I am almost 10 years younger than my biological age.

As A Caregiver to my Mom, this list is some of the things I have learned that help me get through everyday. She has dementia and has live with with for over 2 years. Elder safety is something I learned as time went by. The Security Cameras not only give me the ability to keep an eye on her while doing chores around the house but also give me the ability to escape to a private space and take a breath without having to worry as much about her. The door alarms would be my second favorite item I use. Most of the time she is just going out to sit on the porch but once in awhile she tries to wander farther away. when I hear the door alarm if I can't ran right to the door I can quickly check the cameras and see that she's Ok. I hope you find this list helpful and I will keep adding to it.
