  13. LUXE Bidet NEO 120 - Self-Cleaning Nozzle, Fresh Water Non-Electric Bidet Attachment for Toilet Seat, Adjustable Water Pressure, Rear Wash (White)
    $39.99

    With Crohn's or IBD, while recovering from hip replacement surgeries, and during medical treatment for cancer, a bidet is an essential piece of equipment. Easy to add to your toilet, and easy to use, a bidet cleans your bottom with a stream of water and helps reduce toilet paper irritation. It also reduces the need for a twisting motion (to wipe.)


    If you've never used a bidet, you don't know what you are missing. Thisis a basic model that uses room temperature water, but they also come in deluxe models that use heated water, and ones that have two streams -- one for your bottom and one for women during their menstrual cycle. Once you have a bidet, you'll never understand how you did without one!


    (This bidgt is easy to install. I didn't need a plumber, my retired neighbor came over and installed it in less than 30 minutes.)

    With Crohn's or IBD, while recovering from hip replacement surgeries, and during medical treatment for cancer, a bidet is an essential piece of equipment. Easy to add to your toilet, and easy to use, a bidet cleans your bottom with a stream of water and helps reduce toilet paper irritation. It also reduces the need for a twisting motion (to wipe.)


    If you've never used a bidet, you don't know what you are missing. Thisis a basic model that uses room temperature water, but they also come in deluxe models that use heated water, and ones that have two streams -- one for your bottom and one for women during their menstrual cycle. Once you have a bidet, you'll never understand how you did without one!

    Why a stethoscope? You can use it to listen to your bowel sounds in your gut. You can tell if they are faint and slow, or loud and gurgling. The most important reason to have one? If you hear nothing, then your bowels may not be moving at all. This could be a sign that things are blocked and that you may even have a possible partial or full obstruction. If nothing else, this stethoscope (which is long enough to reach my belly) gives me some peace of mind.

It is a story of growing up with bilateral hip dysplasia, living with psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and talks about my first cancer journey, months in hospice, and the incredible doctor who tried a very risky surgery that ultimately saved my life. It's about learning to adapt to, and even embrace, our many limitations.

    $18.49

    These soft, unscented wipes are so much easier on your bum than toilet paper, especially if you are dealing with anal pain or hemorrhoids. (Don't forget, these are not flushable. Put them in a covered trash can and not in the toilet!)

    $34.99

    This self-opening and closing bathroom trash can opens by motion, and closes tightly afterwards. It is a small size, and it keeps unsightly trash (such as wipes, used gloves, used incontinence pads, etc.) out of sight. I got one of these for each bathroom specifically to make sure my dog didn't get into the trash and causes a mess.

  14. Envlon Tummy Control High Waisted Cotton Underwear for Women No Muffin Top Maternity Underwear Ladies Panties Briefs Underpants Size Large Multicolored
    $14.99

    If you are recovering from abdominal surgery, these women's panties can provide the support you need during the healing process. They are supportive, comfortable, and the fabric breathes well. The higher waist helps prevent having underwear elastic directly pressing on the radical hysterectomy incisions. These certainly are more comfortable than the abdominal binder you may be given at the hospital (and they happy to be pretty, as well.)

    $46.95

    When you have IBD it can be really hard to absorb certain vitamins. IBDassist has the vitamins we need in the dosages we need to help keep us healthy. It is so much easier to take one capsule than dozens of individual ones. (As with any vitamin or supplement, you should discuss its use with your doctor.)

    If you end up with a hernia because of Crohn's or IBD, or if you've had one surgically repaired but still want to have some extra support, I think you'll like this hernia belt. It gives great support and allows you to be more active without making things worse. You can just use the belt portion to provide support after an open radical hysterectomy, as well.

    $17.95

    If you have bile acid malabsorption and have to take a bile acid sequestrant, such as Cholestrymine, Colesavalam, or Colestopol, then you know how hard it is to mix the bile acid powder with juice or another liquid. It clumps. It floats. It is thick and grainy, and hard to drink. But if you have a Helimix Vortex, you simply pour the powder and the liquid in, shake it up and down 20 times, and it will be thoroughly mixed. I've never found anything that works this well. I highly recommend the Helimix Vortex.

    Desitin with the purple label can be so helpful with the irritation and skin breakage that can happen during and after radiation. It contains zinc-oxide (so you have to wash it completely off prior to any radiation treatments) but it can help skin in the anal areas to stay dry so it can heal. (Itis always best to wear exam gloves to apply this because it can be hard to rinse off bare hands._

    Do you love to swim but fear having a fecal accident while in the pool? These adult swim reusable pants can be worn under your swimsuit, or in many cases, instead of swimsuit bottoms. They fit snuggly around the waist and legs to prevent leaking. While they aren't the most attractive thing in the world, they can give you the chance to return to swimming without fear of fecal accidents.

  23. LUXE Bidet NEO 120 - Self-Cleaning Nozzle, Fresh Water Non-Electric Bidet Attachment for Toilet Seat, Adjustable Water Pressure, Rear Wash (White)
    $39.99

    With Crohn's or IBD, while recovering from hip replacement surgeries, and during medical treatment for cancer, a bidet is an essential piece of equipment. Easy to add to your toilet, and easy to use, a bidet cleans your bottom with a stream of water and helps reduce toilet paper irritation. It also reduces the need for a twisting motion (to wipe.)


    If you've never used a bidet, you don't know what you are missing. Thisis a basic model that uses room temperature water, but they also come in deluxe models that use heated water, and ones that have two streams -- one for your bottom and one for women during their menstrual cycle. Once you have a bidet, you'll never understand how you did without one!


    (This bidgt is easy to install. I didn't need a plumber, my retired neighbor came over and installed it in less than 30 minutes.)

Products That Make Life Easier with Psoriatic Arthritis, Plantar Fasciitis, and Enthesitis

Let’s face it, Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) shows its ugly head in so many ways and forms. From Dactylitis (Sausage Fingers and Toes,) Plantar Fasciitis, Enthesitis (which is were the tendons and ligaments pull away from their bone insertion points) causing hand or foot weakness, grip exhaustion, the inability to open jars and containers, and even sometimes the inability to hold on to regular silverware, stiff backs and necks, stiffness and immobility — this autoimmune disease has more faces than a clock shop.

Here are some items I personally recommended that can help make your life with PsA so much easier. I have personally purchased and/or used every item I recommend. These are items that help me get through my day with PsA.

    1. iHave Automatic Toothpaste Dispenser - Smart Bathroom Accessories with Dual-Position Technology and Sturdy Adhesive Strip, Stylish Bathroom Decor and Accessories
      $7.99

      This is an automatic toothpaste dispenser. It only takes up a small space on the wall, and you can remove it from the wall easily for cleaning, as needed. It doesn't use batteries, just good old fashion gravity. It works with any basic style toothpaste. You just stick your brush into the opening and push back on a lever, and your toothbrush comes out with the toothpaste on it. No more struggling to squeeze the tube or get the last bit of toothpaste out.

      $31.99 $24.31

      This is the best lotion applicator I have ever had (and I've bought many of them over the years, only to find they are unwieldy or hard to store.) You put the lotion on the roller, and you can use it on your back, your backside, your legs (front and back) and even your hard-to-reach feet. It also works well with creams. It even comes with two washable replacement rollers. I've had mine for years, and I've never even had to replace the roller cover once.

I have a very tender scalp, and I have no issue using this. You can use this with your shampoo, and your scalp will feel so clean and tingly!

They are soft, gently, easy to clean after using, and dry on their own. They are perfect for any place on your body that has a buildup of dead skin cells in the form of dry, flaky skin.

      This is a bath or shower scrubby for your back or lower legs. The bristles are soft and feel lovely on your skin. Because it is silicon, you don't have to worry about bacterial growth as you do with loofahs, net scrubbers, and natural bristle brushes. Just rinse it when you are done and shake out the excess water. Next time you use it, it will be squeaky clean.

      $18.99

      Don't store your body wash, conditioner, and other shower items on the floor or on your shower chair, because that makes it difficult to safely access them. I have never seen a shelf product like this that actually sticks to the tile walls and stays there! I have been using mine for over 3 years now, and it has never lost its grip. (I will add that I don't use the attachable hooks because they fall out too easily.) The caddy itself is so helpful! (If you move and have to remove it, you can buy new adhesive tabs for it on Amazon as well.)

      This small device with a great grip helps you button buttons and zip zippers. I lost my ability to pull zippers up and to button tiny buttons years ago. This button hook/zipper puller is incredibly helpful. (Full disclosure: I have found this device does not work well with large metal buttons on jeans, so I just buy pull-on jeans. You may have more success with it for jeans, but I just don't have the finger strength or flexibility to do it. It works fine on regular buttons.)

    11. EOMTUR Egg Opener Egg Cracker for Raw Eggs Cracking Tool Egg Cube Egg Seperator Effortless Handheld Egg Cracker, Creative Kitchen Tools For Cooking Camping
      $8.99

      I know this device looks bizarre, but it is something I use in my kitchen almost daily. It is an egg cracker. Because of enthesitis caused by my psoriatic arthritis, one of two things happen when I try to crack an egg on my own -- either I drop the egg and it breaks and makes a mess, or I slam it down on the side of the bowl with such force that the entire shell crumbles and I end up with logs of eggshell in my eggs (and who wants eggshells in their scramble eggs?) With this device, I just put an egg in it, squeeze the metal tabs, which puncture the egg, and open it up and let the inside of the egg come out, while the shell stays in the device. It is incredible.

      (One tip -- if your eggs are overly cold (mine are sometimes overly cold from the fridge) it makes it easier if you let the eggs sit on the counter for a few minutes. If not, you just have to push harder on the metal part.)

Without this device, I would never be able to open my bottled water because I just don't have the dexterity to do so.

      When I go out to eat, I often can't hold the silverware they provide, because it is often lightweight, well-worn, and easily slips out of my hand. The thick rubber handles on these utensils make it comfortable and easy to grip. This set of silverware is fabulous. It comes with a canvas carrying case, so you can just slip it in your purse or bag if you are going to someone else's house to eat or to a restaurant. Once you get home, you can handwash them, or they are top dishwasher safe.

You can warm this one up in the microwave, and then when you use it the warm loosens and soothes your fingers while you pinch, squeeze, and roll this product to improve your finger strength and dexterity. You can order it by the ounce. I personally order it in the 4 oz. size. This is the best thing I've found to keep my fingers moving when they stiffen up or are painful.

This hand pruner is specifically designed for people with arthritis or hand weakness, and it has a ratchet that makes it cut with very little grip strength on your part. I can't recommend them enough. With these, I can garden again!

      I use this for my cluster mailbox key. The mailbox keys are so tiny, and the locks are often stiff to turn. This device makes opening my mailbox so easy. Please note: The picture is deceiving. You cannot fit 3 keys on it as shown. Even if you use two keys, they will fit tightly together and be difficult to separate to just use one. This key turner is ideal for one key. I have one for my mailbox key, and one for the paddle lock key I use. Without this device, I can't use either of those keys successfully.

    24. Desktop Power Strip with 3 Outlet 4 USB Ports 4.5A, Flat Plug and 5 ft Long Braided Extension Cords for Cruise Ship Travel Home Office, ETL Listed
      $14.99

      This extension plug contains a place for 3-prong outlets as well as four charger outlets. It is helpful to keep plugs on top of the desk to reduce bending to reach, and I found it was fabulous while staying in the hospital (where there never seems to be a plug or outlet nearby that isn't already in use.) The metal coil makes it sturdy and safe, and oh so easy to wipe off with disinfectant when you leave.

    25. Homymusy Sock Aid,Soft Sock Aid Device for Elderly, Disabled,Pregnancy Hip (Dark Blue)
      $9.99 $8.99

      This is my favorite sock aid (I call it my sockerator!) It has white terry cloth on the outside, and smooth blue vinyl-type fabric on the inside, so the sock stays on the terry cloth, and your foot slips in easily on the vinyl side. I especially like that it is lightweight, you can curl it up to fit it in a suitcase or bookbag, and it has loops on the end of the strap for those of use who don't have a good grip. I will tell you though, if you use it daily like I do, you do have to replace it every few years, but it is totally worth it!

    28. Copper Compression Long Arthritis Pain Relief Gloves - Copper Infused Orthopedic Fingerless Hand Brace for Women, Men - Carpal Tunnel, Computer Typing, RSI, Support Hands, Wrist, Arms
      $24.95

      Many people with PsA wear compression gloves to bed at night, but if your hands still need compression during the day, typical compression gloves are too thick, making it impossible to type, push buttons on your phone, or even sign your name. These copper compression gloves are think but provide more compression comfort than the thick traditional gloves.


      I like this pair because the go up just over my elbows, and I have enthesitis in both my wrists and my elbows. (You can roll them down if you don't need them to cover your elbows.) These are the best compression gloves I have ever found and when my hands, wrists, forearms, and elbows are painful, I can just put these on and feel the relief.

It is a story of growing up with bilateral hip dysplasia, living with psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and talks about my first cancer journey, months in hospice, and the incredible doctor who tried a very risky surgery that ultimately saved my life. It's about learning to adapt to, and even embrace, our many limitations.

      There are dozens of kinds of seat cushions on Amazon that say they help keep you comfortable when you have a job that requires sitting most of the day (or if you are just always at the computer, like me.) I've tried 5 different kinds of cushions and 4 of them fell short. The Cushon Lab seat cushion is the only one that allows me to sit for long periods of time without becoming stiff or painful. I realize they are a bit expensive, but which would you prefer -- spending your money on a cushion that doesn't really help and then not using it, or buying the best and finding great relief? (I have two of these in my home.)

It has a strap that goes around the chair to hold it in place. They have a variety of colors. The Cushion Lab seat cushion, back support combo provides supreme comfort.

      $11.99

      I know what you are going to say, "I need a heavy-duty metal long-handled shoehorn." I beg to differ. Metal long-handled shoehorns are slippery, easy to drop, and hard to hold on to. They are also heavy in your hand and not the least bit flexible. What you really need is a lighter weight, plastic shoehorn, and this one folds so you can take it with you on vacation, or to store it away in your dresser.

I have never seen a shelf product like this that actually sticks to the tile walls and stays there! I have been using mine for over 3 years now, and it has never lost its grip.

      $8.99

      I know this device looks bizarre, but it is something I use in my kitchen almost daily. It is an egg cracker. Because of enthesitis caused by my psoriatic arthritis, one of two things happen when I try to crack an egg on my own -- either I drop the egg and it breaks and makes a mess, or I slam it down on the side of the bowl with such force that the entire shell crumbles and I end up with logs of eggshell in my eggs (and who wants eggshells in their scramble eggs?) With this device, I just put an egg in it, squeeze the metal tabs, which puncture the egg, and open it up and let the inside of the egg come out, while the shell stays in the device. It is incredible.

      (One tip -- if your eggs are overly cold (mine are sometimes overly cold from the fridge) it makes it easier if you let the eggs sit on the counter for a few minutes. If not, you just have to push harder on the metal part.)

      $9.99

      These openers are real lifesavers. One helps open anything with a pop-top or pull tab. The larger, crab shaped one is great for opening water bottles, sodas, juices -- anything with a cap. Without this device, I would never be able to open my bottled water because I just don't have the dexterity to do so.

      $29.99 $24.99

      When I go out to eat, I often can't hold the silverware they provide, because it is often lightweight, well-worn, and easily slips out of my hand. The thick rubber handles on these utensils make it comfortable and easy to grip. This set of silverware is fabulous. It comes with a canvas carrying case, so you can just slip it in your purse or bag if you are going to someone else's house to eat or to a restaurant. Once you get home, you can handwash them, or they are top dishwasher safe.

You can warm this one up in the microwave, and then when you use it the warm loosens and soothes your fingers while you pinch, squeeze, and roll this product to improve your finger strength and dexterity. You can order it by the ounce. I personally order it in the 4 oz. size. This is the best thing I've found to keep my fingers moving when they stiffen up or are painful.

This hand pruner is specifically designed for people with arthritis or hand weakness, and it has a ratchet that makes it cut with very little grip strength on your part. I can't recommend them enough. With these, I can garden again!

      I use this for my cluster mailbox key. The mailbox keys are so tiny, and the locks are often stiff to turn. This device makes opening my mailbox so easy. Please note: The picture is deceiving. You cannot fit 3 keys on it as shown. Even if you use two keys, they will fit tightly together and be difficult to separate to just use one. This key turner is ideal for one key. I have one for my mailbox key, and one for the paddle lock key I use. Without this device, I can't use either of those keys successfully.

      This is my favorite sock aid (I call it my sockerator!) It has white terry cloth on the outside, and smooth blue vinyl-type fabric on the inside, so the sock stays on the terry cloth, and your foot slips in easily on the vinyl side. I especially like that it is lightweight, you can curl it up to fit it in a suitcase or bookbag, and it has loops on the end of the strap for those of use who don't have a good grip. I will tell you though, if you use it daily like I do, you do have to replace it every few years, but it is totally worth it!

      $24.95

      Many people with PsA wear compression gloves to bed at night, but if your hands still need compression during the day, typical compression gloves are too thick, making it impossible to type, push buttons on your phone, or even sign your name. These copper compression gloves are think but provide more compression comfort than the thick traditional gloves.


      I like this pair because the go up just over my elbows, and I have enthesitis in both my wrists and my elbows. (You can roll them down if you don't need them to cover your elbows.) These are the best compression gloves I have ever found and when my hands, wrists, forearms, and elbows are painful, I can just put these on and feel the relief.

It is a story of growing up with bilateral hip dysplasia, living with psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and talks about my first cancer journey, months in hospice, and the incredible doctor who tried a very risky surgery that ultimately saved my life. It's about learning to adapt to, and even embrace, our many limitations.

I've tried 5 different kinds of cushions and 4 of them fell short. The Cushon Lab seat cushion is the only one that allows me to sit for long periods of time without becoming stiff or painful. I realize they are a bit expensive, but which would you prefer -- spending your money on a cushion that doesn't really help and then not using it, or buying the best and finding great relief?

      $49.99

    Products That Make Life Easier with Hip Dysplasia or Hip Replacements

    Hip dysplasia, and the inevitable total hip replacements that go along with hip dysplasia, cause some very unique issues, especially with self-care and comfort. Here are some items I personally recommended that can help make your life so much easier.

    By means of full disclosure, I may earn a small commission from Amazon for links to any products or services from this website. I also want to add that, as a person with bilateral hip dysplasia, and having bilateral hip replacements for 25+ years, I have purchased and/or used each of the products I am recommending.

    1. KMINA - Long Handled Foot Brush and Toe Cleaner for Disabled, Foot Brush for Shower Between Toes, Long Handle Toe Brush for Seniors, Long Reach Foot Scrubber (Includes Spare Parts)
      $29.99

      If you have trouble reading down and getting between your toes, this handled foot and toe cleaner is tops! The soft yellow sponge easily pushes between each toe to keep them squeaky clean.

    2. Universal Leg Shaving Extension Handle with Adjustable Length Leg Hair Removal Body Shaver Groomer Pregnancy Razor Extension Limited Mobility Tool Use with Various Disposable Razor...

      Never struggle to shave your legs again! These were developed for women when they are pregnant (and some are even advertised for me to use to shave their backs) but the long-handled razor is perfect for people with hip dysplasia or who have hip replacements. No more struggling, straining, and twisting like a pretzel to get smooth, silky legs.

    3. bearback Lotion Applicator for Back & Body. Premium Long Handle Folding Applicator - Sunscreen|Self-Tanner|Body Lotion|Medication. 2 Rollers Included. US Small Business (Teal)
      $31.99 $24.31

      This is the best lotion applicator I have ever had (and I've bought many of them over the years, only to find they are unwieldy or hard to store.) You put the lotion on the roller, and you can use it on your back, your backside, your legs (front and back) and even your hard-to-reach feet. It also works well with creams. It even comes with two washable replacement rollers. I've had mine for years, and I've never even had to replace the roller cover once.

    4. Homymusy Sock Aid,Soft Sock Aid Device for Elderly, Disabled,Pregnancy Hip (Dark Blue)
      $9.99 $8.99

      This is my favorite sock aid (I call it my sockerator!) It has white terry cloth on the outside, and smooth blue vinyl-type fabric on the inside, so the sock stays on the terry cloth, and your foot slips in easily on the vinyl side. I especially like that it is lightweight, you can curl it up to fit it in a suitcase or bookbag, and it has loops on the end of the strap for those of use who don't have a good grip. I will tell you though, if you use it daily like I do, you do have to replace it every few years, but it is totally worth it!

    5. Tea Tree Oil Foot Soak with Epsom Salt - For Toenail Repair, Athletes Foot, Softens Calluses, Soothes Sore & Tired Feet, Nail Discoloration, odor Scent, Spa Pedicure Care - Made in USA 16 oz
      $17.27 $13.39

      Tea tree oil foot soak feels wonderful, and if you have toenail psoriasis, it can really make your toes feel better. The foot soak smooths and softens your feet without having to bend over very much.


      Dry, itchy or callused feet? Use this tea tree soak either in a foot soaker or just use a basin or dishpan. This tea tree oil foot soak is incredible and just what you need for softer, more comfortable feet.

    6. KINCMAX Shower Caddy with 4 Hooks, 304 Stainless Steel, 1 Shelf, Adhesive Mount, Easy to Install, Fast Drain, Holds 20lbs, Ideal for Bathroom, Kitchen, Entryway
      $18.99

      Don't store your body wash, conditioner, and other shower items on the floor or on your shower chair, because that makes it difficult to safely access them. I have never seen a shelf product like this that actually sticks to the tile walls and stays there! I have been using mine for over 3 years now, and it has never lost its grip. (I will add that I don't use the attachable hooks because they fall out too easily.) The caddy itself is so helpful! (If you move and have to remove it, you can buy new adhesive tabs for it on Amazon as well.)

    7. Manmihealth Silicone Back Scrubber for Shower(Thick Bristles), Body Scrubber with 15'' Long Handle, Light & Easy-to-Hold Shower Brush for Skin Exfoliating and Massaging, Not Good in Lath...
      $7.99

      This is a bath or shower scrubby for your back or lower legs. The bristles are soft and feel lovely on your skin. Because it is silicon, you don't have to worry about bacterial growth as you do with loofahs, net scrubbers, and natural bristle brushes. Just rinse it when you are done and shake out the excess water. Next time you use it, it will be squeaky clean.

    8. 5 STARS UNITED Knee Pillow for Side Sleepers - Memory Foam Leg Pillow for Side Sleeping - Between Legs Pillow for Hip and Lower Back Pain - Sciatica Pain Relief
      $34.95

      If you are going to sleep on your side with hip dysplasia, or even more importantly, after a hip replacement, you need a knee pillow to keep your hips safe as you side sleep. I have had a least six different kinds of these over the years, and this one is the best by far. The memory foam holds its shape while staying comfortable. I recommend you get it in the gray color -- because the white color always turns ivory with age, and looks icky, even when it isn't. A knee pillow for people with hip dysplasia or replacements is essential.

    10. Desktop Power Strip with 3 Outlet 4 USB Ports 4.5A, Flat Plug and 5 ft Long Braided Extension Cords for Cruise Ship Travel Home Office, ETL Listed
      $14.99

      This extension plug contains a place for 3-prong outlets as well as four charger outlets. It is helpful to keep plugs on top of the desk to reduce bending to reach, and I found it was fabulous while staying in the hospital (where there never seems to be a plug or outlet nearby that isn't already in use.) The metal coil makes it sturdy and safe, and oh so easy to wipe off with disinfectant when you leave.

      0

      (The Kindle Version is $0.00 if you have Kindle Unlimited, or $3.95 if you don't.) Here's a link to my first book, Embracing Life's Limitations: Letting Go of Who You Were Supposed to Be. It is a story of growing up with bilateral hip dysplasia, living with psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, and talks about my first cancer journey, months in hospice, and the incredible doctor who tried a very risky surgery that ultimately saved my life. It's about learning to adapt to, and even embrace, our many limitations.

    13. Cushion Lab Patented Pressure Relief Seat Cushion for Long Sitting Hours on Office/Home Chair, Car, Wheelchair - Extra-Dense Memory Foam for Hip, Tailbone, Coccyx, Sciatica - Light Grey
      $85.00 $74.99

      There are dozens of kinds of seat cushions on Amazon that say they help keep you comfortable when you have a job that requires sitting most of the day (or if you are just always at the computer, like me.) I've tried 5 different kinds of cushions and 4 of them fell short. The Cushon Lab seat cushion is the only one that allows me to sit for long periods of time without becoming stiff or painful. I realize they are a bit expensive, but which would you prefer -- spending your money on a cushion that doesn't really help and then not using it, or buying the best and finding great relief? (I have two of these in my home.)

      $75.00 $66.99

      If you are getting the Cushion Lab seat cushion, you may want to also get the Cushion Lab back cushion. (I have two of these at home.) They provide incredible back support, and when paired with the Cushion Lab seat cushion, they can make any desk chair into the most incredibly comfortable desk chair. It has a strap that goes around the chair to hold it in place. They have a variety of colors. The Cushion Lab seat cushion, back support combo provides supreme comfort.

      $11.99

      I know what you are going to say, "I need a heavy-duty metal long-handled shoehorn." I beg to differ. Metal long-handled shoehorns are slippery, easy to drop, and hard to hold on to. They are also heavy in your hand and not the least bit flexible. What you really need is a lighter weight, plastic shoehorn, and this one folds so you can take it with you on vacation, or to store it away in your dresser.

    16. RMS 26 Inches Folding Grabber Reacher with Ergonomic Handle
      $19.99 $15.99

      Of course, while a grabber (or reacher) is always essential for members of the hip dysplasia club, this particular one folds in half so you can fit it in a suitcase, bookbag, briefcase, or very large purse. I find it is fabulous to have this for traveling, going to doctors' appointments or an imaging appointment where you have to change into a gown, or just to keep in your car or office. You never know when you'll need it.

    17. LUXE Bidet NEO 120 - Self-Cleaning Nozzle, Fresh Water Non-Electric Bidet Attachment for Toilet Seat, Adjustable Water Pressure, Rear Wash (White)
      $39.99

      With Crohn's or IBD, while recovering from hip replacement surgeries, and during medical treatment for cancer, a bidet is an essential piece of equipment. Easy to add to your toilet, and easy to use, a bidet cleans your bottom with a stream of water and helps reduce toilet paper irritation. It also reduces the need for a twisting motion (to wipe.)


      If you've never used a bidet, you don't know what you are missing. Thisis a basic model that uses room temperature water, but they also come in deluxe models that use heated water, and ones that have two streams -- one for your bottom and one for women during their menstrual cycle. Once you have a bidet, you'll never understand how you did without one!


      (This bidgt is easy to install. I didn't need a plumber, my retired neighbor came over and installed it in less than 30 minutes.)

      $12.88

As osteoarthritis sets in as we age, it can become even more difficult to find comfortable ways to enjoy intimacy. This straightforward book can help you find ways to enjoy intimacy again even with painful or replaced hips. Let's face it -- hip dysplasia is notorious for limiting our abduction, adduction, pelvic strength, and flexibility. This book has the answers to questions you never dared to ask.

      $209.99 $179.99

      This upright rollator is wonderful for helping with mobility and balance, while keeping you in an upright position. Regular walkers and rollators lead to the user becoming hunched-over, but an upright rollator keeps your back nice and straight, and keeps you with good posture. I've had mine since 2020 and it is still working great!

It is so helpful whether on a bed, a couch, or a table top.

    Welcome to My World

    Starting a blog is an idea I’ve thought about for a while. I enjoy sharing my ideas and experiences with others. I realized the therapeutic power of writing as far back as 4th grade. It is a format that has served me well throughout my life.

    I especially want to thank my friend Leeann for encouraging me to start this blog. The support of friends is what makes life worth living.

    And so I begin. I hope you enjoy the show!
