I changed my bag of floss packs the other day. At the beginning of the year, I bought four of them because I cannot control my hands enough to use bag of 150 floss picks (because my hands are small) so I change them out every time I change out my toothbrush head I am changing out tomorrow morning.
So a few days ago, I ran out of floss picks, so I got a new bag of 75 because I will change out the head to my toothbrush tomorrow because it will be three months tomorrow. I cannot control my hands enough to use a manual toothbrush anymore.
My Mom knows that I have to have things done a certain way so the other day when I was changing out my floss pick bag, I was making sure that it would tear open at the perforated line. A few months ago, I tried doing that and I couldn’t so my Mom had to open it for me. Then, I keep my bag of floss picks semi-opened in the box with the remotes for my TV because that’s where I sit to brush my teeth because my chair won’t fit in my bathroom.
She tore off the top of the floss picks bag at the perforated line and handed it to me. I tried opening it up, but I could not even do that. I squeeze my therapy putty every day for 17 minutes and I think at this point, as much as it pains me to say, my hands are just for show.
