This is what helped: We found a functional medicine doctor who understood alternative healing methods; the family member was allergic to a number of
foods, including most grains
and milk; we elevated the bed, so that the head was about six inches higher than the foot; tight restrictive
clothing, especially around the waist, gave way to sweat pants with more
comfort; greasy funk
foods, alchohol,
food colorings, flavorings,
food additives, all were eliminated — in favor of preparing real
food;
food was eaten several hours before bed time with no big late night meals.
Aide in patient
comfort and safety by adjusting beds, bed rails, pillows, patients
clothing, preparing
food or a little light cleaning.
