My hubby can't get an appt at the podiatrist till mid-May and his toenails really do need cutting now. I've got some of those super dooper nail clippers but with a bit of arthritis in me fingers I still find cutting them difficult. Yes I make him soak his feet for 15 mins but is there something I can add to the water to soften them? or something you can reccomend to buy to help?
I and he would be grateful for any suggestions.
Now thats a good idea Tam, soda crystals mmmm? I've got Bicarb might do it. I use it to soften all the baked goo on my baking dishes, I'll give it a go.
Thanks for all other suggestions, by the way moore890 can't use me teeth but I could try giving 'em a good suck. Tee-hee!
Yes China Doll he is diabetic but at this moment he's in pain because the pressure from his shoe is creating a prob. also I don't think he's got a pair of socks now without holes, so need to do them now.
PS Have done them now with a lot of effort may I say, but he's releaved. Had a long bath with a handful of bath salts (soda) did the trick. He hasn't had a bath for years!
