Dear Vickies,
Thanks for your ideas. Yes, my aunt use cane to walk now.
With using her cane, she still get tired easily when walking.
I and my sister go to meet her every week. But I know with that she still feel lonely.
So I will ask her about your proposed activities.
Btw, She told us that she did not want to go out. As she's concerned what other people will think about her difficulty in walking.

If there was any way to get her into a change of scenery that would help tremendously. I have had mobility problems and it is no fun staying in the house all day.
Also, does she have friends? Can people come visit her?
Activities are fine but they don't take away loneliness. I know.
Ask her about things she would like to learn. Knitting, crocheting, painting, drawing, whatever appeals to her.
Hope some of this helps.  |
