as some of you know, I had a stroke Jan of 2015. The stroke left me mostly paralyzed on my left side. this means I cannot move my left arm at all so I will need to sorta learn how to wet shave with only my right hand and will probably need to have someone change the blade in my razor for me when that needs to be done. I will also need to get a rubber friction sheet so my shaving soap doesn't slide all over the counter. I am also thinking of getting a vise-grip device to clamp onto my bathroom counter to hold the razor while I unscrew the head of my razor so I can change the blade myself. I have a flaw... I usually avoid asking for help even if it is obvious that I need help. I've used the help from various gentlemen on this forum in the past.
I welcome helpful advice and suggestions. I still have my razors and shaving brush but will need blades and soap along with alum and aftershave. I am working on convincing the people in charge of this nursing home where I now live to let me have and use my safety razors. they don't want me to have my safety razors because the blades can be removed from the razor. I made it clear to them that I'm not a suicide risk but they think I will become clumsy and cut myself. My sister has my razors. If I cannot convince them to let me have and use my razors I will have to wait until I move in with my fiance (I don't know when that will happen.). I will try to check this forum on a more regular basis from now on. It has been five years and I am still adjusting to post-stroke life.
