Wipe Aid

sometimes life throws you or a loved one something of a curve ball and something happens that limits your flexibility. shoulder, hip, back, or arm injury or just anything that somewhat limits your ability to bend. sometimes that little limit can cause just a hint of difficulty cleaning, well, your back side after doing your business, in the toilet. if you only need a couple inches or few centimeters of reach to take care of yourself maybe this can help. it fits over a finger to give you that little extra reach you need to not have to walk around dirty or have someone else help you. being clean and independent has real quality of life value. embarrassing? maybe. helpful? probably. worth it? it is for me. you may need to scale it up or down a little to fit your, or who evers finger so it doesn't come off when being used. it has a wider groove at the bottom of the finger hole to help with that as well. it doesn't take much to figure out how to use it. i made mine out of pla and have used it for several months without breaking so pla is probably strong enough and the whole thing is small enough to keep in your pocket.
