What product(s) would you invent to make your life as a caregiver easier?

If you could invent anything, what product(s) would you invent to make your life as a caregiver easier or the life of the loved one you are caring for better?

All of the above. The most important thing would be if the people around you, aka, family, siblings, would understand that it's hard on everyone, not just themselves. Paying attention is key and allowing ourselves time off (from the pot to the kettle you understand) is key. I feel like a new person even when i can get away for two or three hours. God bless each of you for what you do. It takes a special gift to care for your loved one, and we all live and breathe by the Grace and Blessings of God. And the serenity prayer too!!!

All of the above get my vote! A bidet would be loverly or a boo day whichever works best...lol. I think clone is the best...one could rest while the other caregives. Buckets of hugs for everyone each and every day!

A robot with the strength of Superman and the patients of God so I can run away and hide a few hours every week.

A device that would record a question and answer, and when it heard the same question within 12 hours would pipe up with the answer. This is related to a person with memory issues that keeps forgetting a question was "asked and answered" already, recently.

An automatic butt cleaner/wiper. And not a boo day (I spelled it phonetically as I have no idea how it is actually spelled ;0 ) . A "boo day" would become a water fountain in my house (eeeuuwwww!)
